| T+J | Movement range (mm) | Time in study (months) | Sex; J range (mm) | −0.152 | .025* |
| Maximum movement speed (mm/s) | Time in study (months) | Sex; J max speed (mm/s) | −3.10 | .02* | |
| J | Movement range (mm) | Time in study (months) | Sex | 0.03 | .54 |
| Maximum movement speed (mm/s) | Time in study (months) | Sex | 1.72 | .18 | |
| Movement duration (s) | Time in study (months) | Sex | 0.012 | .042* |
Note. LME = linear mixed effects; T+J = tongue and jaw; J = jaw.
