The tonic (resting) and peak (maximum) lip pressures of 100 subjects were measured. The purpose was to evaluate the validity of the assumption that high peak pressures are indicative of high tonic pressures and vice versa. This paper describes the equipment and techniques devised to test these pressures. The results showed no statistically significant relationship whatsoever between tonic and peak lip pressures. We, therefore, suggest that maximum lip pressures not be used as a diagnostic aid in orthodontics.
测量了100名受试者的静态（休息时）和峰值（最大）唇压力。目的是评估高峰值压力表明高静态压力反之亦然这一假设的有效性。本文描述了为测试这些压力而设计的设备和技术。结果显示静态和峰值唇压力之间不存在任何统计学上的显著关系。因此，我们建议正畸治疗中不要将最大唇压力用作诊断辅助手段。
