I have bruxism off and on, and I think it's related to SSRI use. It also seems like it might be related to akathisia (inner restlessness?). When I went to the dentist, the assistant told me to try not to do it anymore (heh OK, sure no problem), and gave me a sample of tooth sensitivity stuff. I guess the bruxism caused tiny cracks in my teeth.
