Clear aligners have steadily gained popularity over the years, and for good reason. There are many benefits SureSmile can offer that traditional metal braces simply can\u2019t. That being said, like any orthodontic treatment, it can affect the way you speak. For some people, that\u2019s enough to dissuade them from pursuing treatment, but any changes to your speech from clear aligners are temporary, minimal, and fixable. Here\u2019s what you can expect with SureSmile when it comes to the way you talk and some tips on how to adjust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><a><\/a><strong>Potential Speech Issues with SureSmile<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Clear aligners can affect your speech because they decrease the amount of available space in your mouth. As a result, your tongue has less room to move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the speech issues you may face while using SureSmile are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Slight lisp<\/li><li>Slower talking speed<\/li><li>Trouble with enunciation or slurring your words<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, SureSmile is made of very thin plastic that only covers the surface of your teeth. As a result, any speech changes are typically small and will naturally fade after a few days of practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Helpful Tips for Talking with SureSmile<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, there are ways to make the transition of beginning a new set of aligners smoother. Although it may feel awkward at first, practice makes perfect. The more you talk, the faster your tongue will get used to your aligners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When practicing, over-enunciate and speak slowly, focusing on the letters you have the most difficulty pronouncing. You can record yourself reading aloud so you can identify what sounds, words, and phrases are most challenging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most importantly, have patience with yourself. You\u2019ll be back to happily chatting away in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><a><\/a><strong>About the Practice<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jupiterimplantdentistry.com\/about-us.html\">Jupiter Implant &amp; Cosmetic Dentistry<\/a>, husband-and-wife duo Dr. Shane and Dr. Amiee are eager to help you find the confidence you deserve.
