“…First, the adjusted coefficient of determination in the multiple linear regression analysis was 0.21, indicating the existence of other factors related to masticatory performance. Masticatory performance has been associated with malocclusion [41,42], mandibular movement [43,44], and the occlusal contact area [45]. Furthermore, after adjusting for the maximum occlusal force and tongue pressure, which tended to be higher in males than in females [19,21,33], sex was identified as a significant factor, indicating that masticatory performance is related to other sex-specific factors, such as eating behavior which differs according to sex [46].…”

Mastication is a comprehensive process comprising multiple factors, including individual oral functions such as the maximum occlusal force and tongue pressure and tongue-lip motor function. Exploring their interrelationship is important for understanding the impact of these factors on masticatory performance. However, few studies have focused on these factors in adolescents and young adults. Only one study has investigated the development of masticatory performance in 6-17-year-olds according to sex [9]. Furthermore, although multivariate analysis has been used to identify factors J Prosthodont Res. 2022; **(**):

“…This issue of JPR addresses a variety of topics, particularly regarding elderly people, including a study to develop a simple screening test for mastication [4], image analysis to clarify the effects of food particle loss on the evaluation of masticatory ability [5], and finding an association between abnormal masticatory movement and oral/physical function, possibly influenced by central motor control [6]. Interestingly, Padmanabhan et al [7] observed superior sensory feedback and improved cognitive performance in edentulous patients with implant-retained overdentures compared with those with conventional complete dentures.…”

“…There are seven criteria for diagnosis of oral hypofunction proposed by the Japanese Society of Gerodontology: oral cleanness, oral dryness, lip and tongue motor function, tongue pressure (TP), occlusal force, masticatory function and swallowing function. 11 Moreover, previous studies have examined the associations between oral health and sarcopaenia, 12 oral function and sarcopaenia, 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 swallowing muscles and sarcopaenic dysphagia, 17 , 18 oral function and physical performance, 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 oral function and cognitive function 24 and oral function and polypharmacy. 7 Especially, TP and tongue thickness, which are sensitive markers for oral frailty, decrease with age.…”

Objectives: Muscle strength decreases with age, causing a decline in physical and orofacial function. However, the impact of physiological and pathophysiological factors on tongue pressure (TP) has not been clarified. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to compare and analyse TP and handgrip strength (HGS) between individuals aged <60 and ≥60 years, gender and need for care (independent older adults (IC) and older adults receiving nursing care (NC)). Furthermore, the effect of HGS in physical function on TP was examined.Methods: Human clinical studies reporting HGS and TP were searched systematically using PubMed and Ichushi-Web published from 1969 to Nov 2021. Random-effects meta-regressions were performed to compare between subgroups and to examine the association between HGS and TP (α < .05). Results:Forty-four studies with a total of 10 343 subjects were included. TP and HGS values were significantly higher in people aged <60 years relative to ≥60 years and in IC relative to NC (all p < .001). Regarding gender, there was no significant difference in TP (p = .370). However, a significant gender-dependent difference in TP was observed in people aged <60 years (p < .001), but not in aged ≥60 years in IC group (p = .118) and aged ≥60 years in NC group (p = .895). There was a significant positive correlation of HGS and TP (p < .001).Conclusions: Similar to decrease in HGS, age-related sarcopaenia seems to have an effect on oro-facial muscles like the tongue. Research on rehabilitation measures for oro-facial muscle strength, similar to HGS might be beneficial to improve the personally acquired oro-facial potential.
