4. The word mandible is derived from
Latin word mandibula- "jawbone"
or inferior maxillary bone.
It forms the lower jaw and holds the
lower teeth in place.
It is the largest, strongest and lowest
bone in the face.
5. Only movable bone in the skull
It consists of an anterior Horseshoe-shaped
body, and of two rami that project
upwards from the posterior part of the
body.
It provides structural and protective
support for the oral cavity.
The mandible is articulated in ball and
socket fashion at the condylar process.
Strength resides in its dense cortical
plates.

teeth which they contain.

32. •Forms from the 1st arch within the mandibular process.
• Meckel’s cartilage (cartilage of 1st arch) forms lower jaw in
primitive vertebrates.
• In humans, it has a close relation to the developing mandible
but makes no direct contribution to it.
33. Forms at 6th week of development.
• It is a solid hyaline cartilage surrounded by a
fibro-cellular capsule.
• Extends from otic capsule to the midline of the
fused mandibular processes.
• Cartilages of each side do not meet at midline;
they are separated by a thin band of
mesenchyme. Formation of the mandibular division of trigeminal
nerve begins two thirds along the length of the cartilage.
• It divides into two branches at this point:
Lingual nerve Inferior alveolar nerve (IAN)
• Lingual nerve runs along the medial aspect of the
cartilage.
• Inferior alveolar nerve runs along the lateral aspect of the
34. Mandible is the second bone to ossify in the body.
It is partly membranous & partly cartilaginous in
ossification.
• Incisive part below symphysis menti
• Coronoid
• Condyloid process
• Upper half of ramus
Cartilage
• Whole of body except lower incisive
part
• Lower half of ramus upto
mandibular foramen
Membrane
35. Condensation of mesenchyme occurs lateral to
Meckel’s cartilage in the 6th week gestation.
This condensation begins at the angle formed
by division of the IAN into incisive and
mental branches.
Intra-membranous ossification begins in this
condensation during the 7th week.
Ossification begins in the membrane covering
the outer surface of Meckel’s cartilage.
From this centre, bone formation spreads
rapidly, anteriorly to the midline, posteriorly
to the point of division of the mandibular
nerve into lingual nerve and inferior alveolar
nerve.
36. Ossification grows medially beneath the incisive
nerve, then spreads beneath this nerve and
Meckel’s cartilage.
• Incisive nerve is contained within this trough or
groove of bone formed by lateral and medial
plates which are united below the nerve.
• This trough comes in close contact with a
similar trough from the opposite side. The two
fuse shortly after birth. Trough converted into
canal when bone forms over the nerve.
• Spread of ossification in the backward
direction produces at first a troughlike gutter of
bone in which lies the inferior alveolar nerve up
to the level of the future lingula.
• Later this gutter is converted to bone.
37. BODY OF MANDIBLE
• Above bony canal, medial
and lateral alveolar plates
develop.
• Odontogenic epithelium
forming the tooth germs lies
superiorly.
• Medial and lateral plates
develop around these germs
and they come to lie in a
secondary trough.
• Trough is partitioned by
developing individual tooth
germs.
• Alveolar plates completely
enclose the tooth germs.
RAMUS OF MANDIBLE
• Ossification spreads
posteriorly into mesenchyme
of the 1st arch.
• Spreads away from
Meckel’s cartilage and this
point of turning away is the
future lingula.
• By 10th week, primitive
mandible is formed almost
entirely by membranous
ossification.
38.
39. CONDYLAR CARTILAGE
• Appears during 12th week.
• Rapidly forms cone/carrot shaped mass occupying
most of ramus area.
• Converted to bone by endochondral ossification. •
By 20th week, only a thin layer of cartilage remains in
the condylar head.
• This remnant of cartilage persists till the 2nd decade
of life.
• Provides a growth mechanism for the mandible in
the same way as an epiphyseal cartilage does in the
limbs.
40. CORONOID
CARTILAGE
• Appears at about
4th month of
development.
• Forms near
anterior border and
top of the coronoid
process.
• It is a transient
cartilage.
• Disappears long
before birth.
SYMPHYSEAL
CARTILAGE
• Two in number.
• Appear in the
connective tissue
between two ends
of the Meckel’s
cartilage.
• Get obliterated
within the first year
of birth.
41. AT BIRTH :
The two halves of the mandible are united by a
fibrous symphysis menti.
At this stage the body is a mere shell, enclosing
imperfectly separated sockets of deciduous
teeth.
The mandibular canal is near the lower border
The mental foramen opens below the first
deciduous molar and is directed forwards.
The coronoid process projects above the condyle
The angle of the mandible is obtuse (above
140degrees or more) because the head is in line
with the body.
42. IN ADULTS :
The mental foramen opens midway between
the upper and lower borders as the alveolar
and sub-alveolar regions are about equal in
depth.
The mandibular canal nearly parallels the
mylohyoid line
The angle between the lower border of the
body and a plane touching the posterior
surface of the condyle above and ramus
below diminishes as ramal height increases
with age (about 110 –120degrees)
43. In OLD AGE :
Bone is reduced in size as
teeth are lost and
alveolar region resorbed
The mandibular canal and
the mental foramen are
nearer the superior border
The ramus becomes
oblique as angle becomes
obtuse (140degrees) and
the neck inclined backwards.
47. MANDIBULAR
CANAL
MANDIBULAR
CANAL
MENTAL
FORAMEN
In partially/totally edentulous jaws:
the disappearance of alveolar portion of
the mandible brings the mandibular canal
close to the superior border.When these
patients are evaluated for placement of
implants,the distance between the canal
and the superior surface of bone must be
carefully determined to avoid surgical
injury to nerve.
48. LINGUAL NERVE
Lingual nerve may be injured when
periodontal partial thickness flap
is raised in the third molar region/
when releasing incisions are made..
