So are electric toothbrushes really worth it or are they just a meme?

I have one and I rarely use it as I feel a normal toothbrush works better, but it's just my impression.

Do floss though, that's the real game changer for oral hygiene.

All the dentists I've gone to recommended them (without financial interests) and I've almost always used them and never had cavities.
Be aware that you have to use an electric toothbrush in a slightly different way than a normal one.

As others have pointed out, flossing is probably more important. And I have two bonus tips for you:
1) Your saliva needs time to neutralize the acids and bacteria in your mouth after eating. You shouldn't snack all the time, but eat proper meals and then eat nothing for a couple of hours and don't drink sugary drinks, just water.
2) Get chewing gum with Xylitol. It is very good for your teeth.

Tl;dr: It prevents cavities.

>As of 2015, clinical trials examining whether xylitol alone or with other agents can prevent cavities found the evidence was too poor to allow generalizations, although it appeared that when children with permanent teeth use fluoride toothpaste with xylitol, they may get fewer cavities than when using fluoride toothpaste without it.[3] It appears that people get fewer cavities when they chew gum sweetened with xylitol (or similar artificial sweeteners like sorbitol) than when they chew gum sweetened with sucrose.[13][14][15]

>In 2008, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) evaluated the literature on xylitol, concluding that “xylitol chewing gum reduces the risk of caries in children”.[12][16] The claim required rewording because xylitol chewing gum is not a medicine, and thus can "not be claimed to reduce the risk of a disease".[12] In 2011, EFSA approved a claim that replacing sugar with xylitol and similar sweeteners "may maintain tooth mineralisation compared with sugar-containing foods."

I've had several brands of regular electric toothbrushes over the years. Recently got a Sonicare. It's far exceeds the clean of any of the others I've used before. It's $$ but you get what you pay for.
Also use a waterpik for total dental hygiene coverage.

I use this stuff to clean my teeth and it's the best my mouth has ever felt. The products you use are more important than your toothbrush as long as you aren't stupid and know how to brush thoroughly.
