What causes a person to have a lisp?
342230
Someone with a lisp usually has a problem with the position of their tongue within their mouth in relation to their front teeth and the roof of their mouth. When most people who speak normally pronounce the "T" sound, they seal off the air in their mouth (usually by pressing their tongue against the front teeth or the roof of the mouth just above the front teeth) to make one sharp abrupt sound. People with a lisp are unable to make that air "seal," making it much more difficult to get the abrupt sound. This may be because they learned it incorrectly as a child or because of dental/glossal (fancy word for anything to do with the tongue) deformity.

My guess would be that your teeth are loose due to bone loss rather than a too long tongue.  There are usually periodontal problems present when adults have loose teeth.

Mouth ulcers are caused by many disorders. These include canker sores, leukoplakia, gingivostomatitis, oral cancer, oral lichen planus, oral thrush, herpes simplex, and other disorders. The skin lesion of histoplasmosis may also appear as a mouth ulcer.

Leukoplakia is a condition in which thickened, white patches form on your gums, on the inside of your cheeks and sometimes on your tongue — usually as a result of chronic irritation. Tobacco, either smoked or chewed, is the main culprit, but irritation can also come from ill-fitting dentures and long-term alcohol use.\n\nAlthough anyone can develop leukoplakia, it's most common in older men. People with compromised immune systems sometimes develop an unusual form of the disorder called hairy leukoplakia.

I dont know the cause of stammering in your regard! Many things could cause it. However, i will pray for you to stop doing it. That you would speak clear!

Having enlarge tonsils can cause a delay in speech because the tongue is pushed forward, making it difficult to make sounds.

Many times the "twitch" is caused by a vitamin B-12 deficiency.  Eat some broccoli or buy some sub-lingual (under the tongue) dissolving vitamins.  They also help with biting your tongue or the inside of your cheeks.

Its called Reflux, the little flap in the esophagus is slack and it is allowing food to return up to your friends mouth. This can cause problems if his stomach content is too acidic because it can cause ulcers in esophagus. Tell your friend to go to the Doctor.

It is usually lack of sleep or increased stress.  Sometimes too much caffeine or nicotine can be the cause.  The technical term is Myokymia.

This is a very difficult question to answer.  There is a part of your brain that controls speech and it is programmed so that we are able to speak fluently, like most people.  But, for some that programming is set wrong, and they have issues saying certain words, letters, etc.  It can also be caused by other speech impediments that throw off the speaking process.  Either way, stuttering is an involuntary action that can be eliminated through vocal training.
