I'm worried because my upper lip and tongue make it hard to speak, it started a while ago but it keeps getting worse, what do you suggest?

Need more info...: Why do your upper lip and tongue make it hard to speak? Are they swollen? Are they numb? Are you missing teeth? Your post leaves us guessing. It would be wise to seek the advice of a local dentist. Explain your concerns at your initial consultation.
