"Objective : To characterize muscle activity and muscle strength in patients with atypical swallowing (AS; n = 88) and competent lips ( CL ) or incompetent lips ( IL ) versus a control group (Ctrl; n = 90) Methods and materials : an analytical case-control study was conducted using surface electromyography ( sEMG ) of the orbicularis oris, mentalis and masseter muscles. Compression forces of the orbicularis oris, right and left masseters muscle (Cfrmm, Cflmm)) , tongue tensile strength (Tts) via myoscan analysis and resistance of the orbicularis oris (Roo) via dynamo - metry were determined. Comparisons were made with the Mann-Whitney U test under a 95% confidence interval. Results : The amplitude of the sEMG record of the orbicularis oris muscle, in maximal con - traction, was lower (p
