Lordosis\u00a0of\u00a0the neck\u00a0is the normal curvature needed for a person to have a full range of motion in rotation, flexion, and extension. Patients with a loss of that cervical l0rdosis can mask the degree of bite distortion present. \u00a0Patients with bilaterally displaced TMJ disks will frequently have masked the severity of the anterior open bite distortion that occurs by repositioning the mandible as well as increasing forward head position and taking OA extension to a maximum.
