In summary, the conversation is about learning how to speak with a sharp whistle on every "s" sound, also known as being a "whistle tooth." Some people find this speech impediment annoying, but others are interested in learning it. It is caused by dental treatments that alter the front teeth, and some people purposely train themselves to do it.

Hi,
I was hoping to train myself to become a whistle tooth. This is where you can talk with a sharp whistle on every "s" sound. I think this requires wooden teeth. Does anyone know anything on the subject?

Thanks all!

It's an annoying speech impediment. Why on Earth would you want to sound annoying?

Dr. Turbyfill is listening not for his patients’ dramatic flair, but for their s’s. The letter’s normal hiss can turn into a distracting whistle as an unexpected and unhappy result of any dental treatment that alters the contour or position of the front teeth.

Step 1: Learn how to wistle with your tounge (i.e. not with fingers or with your lips)
Step 2: Practice incorporating that whistle into speech.
Step 3: Watch as the people around you slowly start avoiding you
