Invisalign lisp - Will invisaline give me a lisp or affect my speech?

By ang4747 on 01 Jun 2009

i read here about invisaline may cause me to lisp. i haven't heard of metal braces causing lisping so maybe it's a better choice than invisaline?

You probably will have a lisp but from what I hear, it's temporary..all you have to do is repeat yourself, most people get the idea.

The one great thing about Invisalign is that they are not visible. Yes, you may possibly have a lisp, but it's a personal choice of what you want. The look or a possible lisp. I personnally after a only a few weeks of wearing Invisalign was use to my aligners. Well worth it.

I was only affected with a lisp with my first set and only for a day or so. IMO, they are well worth it.

I recommend that my patients sing in the car that first week to get used to the changes with the aligners in. No one has complained of lisping and they love the results.

I have been wearing my invisaline for about two month my sons notice my lisp right away we just laughed about it but they were very happy that my teeth were getting taken care of.
