tongue tie correlation with stutter?

tongue tie correlation with stutter? So I was at the dentist today and all went well, but when she finished cleaning my teeth she asked if I had difficulty pronouncing any sounds or words. I told her ...

Yeah, and we don't know enough about it yet. It's really hard to say anything general. So maybe it's not that important. As a talking point, you know....

Just to be clear. A stutter and stammer are the exact same things. Secondly I'm just getting the vibe that there's some panic here. That you think he missed out on a job opportunity because of it. Ha...

This is not necessarily a bad situation for the disabled person, it all depends on the auto irony of the DP, on the joke and on the context...

Geez, this is an interesting case. I’d give you the usual spiel, but I have no idea if acquired stuttering would even respond the same way to my usual suggestions....

There's no way we can answer this! Please work with your doctor(s) to see if something like speech therapy can help you. There's no 'cure' for stutter as we know it....

Hi! Fellow stutterer and speech and language therapy student here! Most people do grow out of stammering or find a way to maintain it. Only about 3-8% of stammerers still have a stammer in adulthood (...
