| Popis: | Objectives Lip‐seal strength, which represents the muscle strength of the lips, appears to chiefly contribute to mastication and pronunciation. However, the functional characteristics of lip‐seal strength in adults are still undefined. The present study aimed to understand not only the distribution of lip‐seal strength in adult men and women but also the effect of age on this strength and identify oral motor functions correlated with lip‐seal strength. Materials and methods The subjects included 339 participants (men: 170, age 39.2 ± 18.2 years; women: 169, age 43.1 ± 19.7 years). Oral motor function was evaluated for lip‐seal strength, oral diadochokinesis (ODK), tongue pressure, occlusal force, and masticatory performance. Statistical analyses included the Shapiro–Wilk, Mann–Whitney U, and Jonckheere–Terpstra tests, in addition to the Spearman's correlation analysis and curvilinear regression analysis. Results Lip‐seal strength did not have a normal distribution (p |
