Lisps Treatment in Winston-Salem

What Is Lisps?
There are two main types: frontal lisps occur when the tongue pushes forward against or between the teeth, and lateral lisps happen when air escapes over the sides of the tongue creating a 'slushy' sound. Frontal lisps often resolve naturally by age 4-5, while lateral lisps typically require therapy. Both types can be effectively treated with targeted speech therapy, usually within 3-6 months.
