I had a temporary crown, and it ended up falling out. I was without a crown for two days. I immediately had a lisp. I got the new permanent crown put in this morning. Well, I still have a lisp. I complained, and the dental assistant said I would "get used to it". I asked the lisp, or the crown? She laughed, and didn't answer. So, will I have a permanent lisp? Or will this go away? I want know if I should call them, and find a way to fix it. Thank you!
I was born tongue tied (never know it was called that) lol I was fine, no speech problems at all. I didn't get it cut until I was 11. Everything has been normal ever since, my tongue is just a little short.
He scheduled blood tests and an MRI, as well as an x-ray of the spine. (I have had constant headaches for 5 months so we thought the two problems may be releated).
Now, another week later, I am having even more difficulty speaking, feeling a particular tightness in my chin. I can still speak relatively well, with a slurred word her and there, but I feel like I'm having to try too hard. I can still easily open and move my mouth, and shake my tongue quickly from side to side.
In July, I got a filling on the back of my top tooth - the tooth directly next to my right front tooth. There used to be a 'ridge' on the back of this tooth that I would feel with my tongue all of the time (there is an identical ridge on the opposite left tooth as well), and. when the dentist filled the small cavity on the back of the tooth, he shaved away the ridge, too.
I have, since the filling, had troubles making the "S" sound - I have definitely developed a mild lisp.
t meet, the inside of the mouth in between the two sides of the top row of teeth is far too narrow among many other rather large problems. As a result, I have a lisp and slurred speech. You following me so far? Anyway, now I want to be a lawyer. A criminal barrister under NSW law. To be a criminal barrister, you need to make speeches and mind blowing ones at that. My speech doesn't help. My teeth and jaws have to be realigned with braces.
Well, three years has passed and my dosage has increased to 108 mg/morning. At 72 mg I started developping speech problems and then they worsened at 90 mg. It was so bad, that ny doctor reduced my dose but later on he decided to increase it back up as I was having a lot of struggles. On the 108 mg, my speech problems are actually better than when I was on the 90 mg dosage.
For that whole period of time while I had my bite plate, I had a very noticeable lisp, and it did not go away. I finally got my bite plate off 4 days ago and I still have a very bad lisp. What can I do to get rid of it quickly?
There is a very slight drop off (about 10 Db) between the bad ear and the good ear at 2,000 and 3,000 Hz. It is only at 4,000 Hz that the real problems start -- a big 55 Db drop, followed by 60 Db at 8,000.
I have no conversational disability. As I mentioned in a previous thread, I got a 100% in "Speech Audiometry" in both ears. When I experiment on myself, however, I do note some issues.
The right side of his body was larger than his left. This included his tongue and he had to have speech therapy for years and still has a lisp and has difficulty swallowing pills. He had some surgery when he was only 2 and the anethesist said intubating him was tricky because of the size of his tongue on one side. He was being followed by a pediatric orthopedic surgeon from age 4 unti last year when he was only 13yrs old. Last April was his last visit and he was 5'9.
Here goes my story:
Against my better judgement, I agreed to my dentist's request to pull out my last wisdom tooth, on the upper right side. It is a baby tooth, and was supposed to cause no problems at all. I had been nervous about doing it since it didn't cause problems, but he said I'm prone to cavities, it's hard to floss back there, and it should be a speedy recovery. The extraction was done under local anesthesia and very quickly. It came out whole and only had one root.
I am 18 years old and I am studying for my A levels hopefully to get a place into medical school (please do hope the best for me!). In the past year I have been suffering a few problems, for example my right side of my head aches a lot and when the ache comes it stays for the entire day, sometimes randomly there are sharp pains in my head that happen for one second and then leave.
Then there is the mechanical part of communicating our language and that is speech. Problems with speech can include just trying to get the words out, pronouncing the words, the tonal quality of our speech, using emphasis and inflection. Problems with speech can be from weakness or spasticity of the muscles of our mouths, throats and vocal cords. Or it can be with the way our brain tries to direct the speech.
Confusion/zone out - cant think of words or spell, struggle to work out how to get where I am going, forget words, find it hard to make a sandwich, lose track of time etc
Semi numb/tingling - back of hands, sides of face near ears, lips, tip of nose.
I recently got 10 porcelain veneers across my top front teeth and now I am having a lot of difficulty in my speech. Slurring my "s" and "t"/"th" words in particular. I always had a bit of a lisp but now it is so much worse that I am actually embarrassed to talk at all because I sound so silly! I love the way the teeth look but am afraid I'll never be able to talk right again.
or at least he did, but now he just stands alone in the play ground and stares at the floor. His speech is a problem and he doesnt pronounce his words properly and has a very distinct lisp. He gets very angry sometimes, and acts out by being destructive. My daughter has never did any reading with him at home and he has been left to his own devices. Its heartbreaking.When he is with me, I spend time with him. I read his school books, but he hates it.
t breathe all the time even though the spirometer tests were normal and I was scared about it. Have you seen a speech therapist? It made a world of a difference for me. What happened is, and I know this sounds crazy, but your body has probably forgotten how to breathe. Since anxiety makes people have bad breathing patterns, even when you're not anxious, you can feel out of breath. I laughed when I was told to go to a speech therapist but I was oh so wrong.
