Did you know teeth have a blood supply and a nerve? Which means the tooth is alive and you can "feel" what you are doing. Denture weares no longer have those nerves and don't feel the same way so they don't have the some control over their speech as well because they are only relying on the blunt feel through their gums, so they can't feel whether or not their teeth are touching, they just know when their jaw doesn't close any more than it is. I hope this answers your question!

Here is the actual reason. The position of the front teeth is incorrect. Stand in front of a mirror and make the "S" sound. The edges of your top and bottom teeth have to JUST ABOUT touch when you put your chin forward to do this. If the denture teeth are in the wrong place, you can't get those teeth into the proper position to make a good "S" sound. An "S" sound is actually a high pitched whistle, if you think about it.
Stay with me on this explanation. If the teeth are in the wrong position, but they accidentally find that "almost touching" position when you are trying to say other letters, it will whistle inappropriately. This often happens when the dentures are "too tall" for the patient's mouth, because they just can't help but bring the edges close together much of the time. It also happens if the bottom teeth are set too far out, as is frequently requested by the patient. They think that their smile looks better if the top and bottom teeth touch edge-to-edge when they are smiling. This is actually the wrong position for the bottom teeth and it will cause frequent whistling.
