Side effects.: I have really seen reports of this. However, it is documented that in rare cases of bruxism due to SSRI use, that buproion has been added to stop this side effect. See: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5914744/

Nope: Where did that idea come from? Bruxism is often caused by stress, or the desire to position the teeth in an alternative place when they do not meet properly, or just to obtain endorphins from clenching the muscles for more that 15 minutes. The brain loves that and gets hooked on it. Its a habit!
