Bruxism as a side‐effect of psychotropic medications could result in significant consequences for oral health such as tooth structure destruction and irreversible harm to the temporomandibular joint. The review findings uncovered by these authors can assist in understanding the aetiology of bruxism, establishing an appropriate management plan, while supporting psychiatrists and dentists to detect temporomandibular dysfunctions such as bruxism.
