Clear Speech = Good Mouth Health
Speech problems are often the most noticeable symptoms of a deeper issue.
When the mouth isn’t working in sync, it can affect
………. and so much more.
What if Mouth Muscles Can’t Shape Sounds?
Tongue: /t/, /d/, /n/, /l/, /r/, /s/,/z/ may be unclear and tongue weakness can affect chewing, swallowing, breathing, and facial growth.
Lips: /f/, /v/, /m/, /b/, /p/ may be muffled or nasal, and weak lips can make drinking, blowing, smiling, and mouth closure harder.
Jaw: Vowels may sound inconsistent, and poor jaw stability can affect chewing, bite alignment, and cause fatigue or tension headaches .
Cheeks: Weak Cheeks can make speech slurred or muffled, make certain sounds harder to say (/p/, /b/, /t/, /d/, /k/, /g/,/s/, /z/) affect chewing, and interfere with tongue placement and airflow.
Facial muscles: Weak expression and oral posture can affect smiling, speech clarity, and coordination of mouth movements .
Respiratory system (nose/mouth): Mouth breathing or poor airflow control can affect speech resonance, sleep, energy levels, and overall health .
Commonly affected sounds from a mouth dysfunction:
/t/, /d/,/n/, /k/, /g/, /s/, /z/, /sh/, /ch/, /th/, /l/, /r/
