The mandible, or lower jawbone, primarily protects the teeth and plays a crucial role in the structure of the oral cavity. While it does not directly protect internal organs, its positioning helps shield the underlying structures of the mouth and jaw, including the tongue and salivary glands. Additionally, the mandible is involved in the function of chewing and speaking, contributing to overall oral health.
