    No. Lisps are usually caused by incorrect learning and not due to structural problems like cleft palate. Consequently, treatment of lisps is best accomplished by speech therapy. Certain consonants like p, b, t, d, k, g, f, v, s, z, sh, ch are especially difficult to pronounce for these children. In these children the words might sound nasal.
