The mandible, located inferiorly in the facial skeleton, is the largest and strongest bone of the face.
It forms the lower jaw and acts as a receptacle for the lower teeth. It also articulates on either side with the temporal bone, forming the temporomandibular joint.
In this article, we will look at the anatomy and clinical importance of the mandible.
