There could be any number of reasons for this, but the reason that you do this might not be all that important.
If you feel that this will in any way hamper your future, ask your doctor to refer you to a speech therapist. That's a person trained in identifying and helping to solve problems that involve the placement of various parts of your mouth for purposes of speech and swallowing. If this is found to be the result of a dental problem (It's possible), it might be something that can be corrected with specific dental work.

Are you talking about in English? It's hard to give specific advice without knowing your first language, but do you have a text that can show you the correct position of your lips, tonuge and jaw when making certain vowel and consonant sounds? The reason people have strong accents sometimes or trouble making certain sounds in another language is because they are trying to make new sounds using the same mouth positions they use for their first language. To make those sounds that are difficult for you, you usually have to learn to move your lips, tongue and jaw in new positions. Carefully look at native speakers' mouths when they are pronouncing the same words. Chances are, if the sounds are hard to reproduce, you have to find out exactly where your lips, tongue and jaw need to be. Good luck!
Can you give a couple examples of words or sounds in words that are hard?

Ask your friends which words you usually mangle. This will be a crucual source of on going feedback.
Read some typical text (5 minutes worth) while recording your voice.
Listen and note the words you hear to be off.
Repeat a few times each round.
You should select new text each round.
Keep a file and after about 10 rounds, go back to repeat some of the earlier stuff.
Getting books on tape, can also be another source of pronounciations that you can emulate.

Pronounce... Could be a minor, slight, insignificant speach impediment? Sometimes people have a list, overbite, etc. that makes it difficult to pronounce some sounds/words. Practice words that you're having trouble with.

You also have problems spelling. Pronouncing. If your problem is in English, listen to a lot of music and as many native speakers as possible and try to imitate the sounds.
