effects of medication on oral health

I am researching the area of the effects of medication on oral health particularly in the area of anti psychotic medication and long term use of anti convulsants and anti depressants. Any articles or information would be of use.

I saw some a while back when researching the effects of caffeine on bone loss.
Many of those psychotropics have dry mouth and vomiting as side-effects (which can affect a person's dental health).

Good luck with the research.  Sounds interesting.
