I had daytime bruxism while on effexor and wellbutrin. I am now on cymbalt a(2 months) and it seems to be slowly subsiding. There isn't anything to wear during the day that doesn't inhibit your speech - never mind drooling!
For the protection of your teeth at least while you sleep, I would recommend getting a nightguard fitted by a dentist (don't bother with the ones available in the drugstore). I can highly recommend a particular type of biteguard called an NTI. This type helps to prevent the muscle spasms that happen during bruxism.
