The condylar process is the part of the mandible that articulates with the temporal bone at the temporomandibular joint. It extends to the smooth articular surface of the head of the mandible. The alveolar part refers to the portion of the mandible that houses the teeth. The mylohyoid line is a bony ridge that marks the origin of the mylohyoid muscle. The coronoid process is a bony projection on the anterior aspect of the mandible that serves as an attachment site for the temporalis muscle. The mandibular fossa is the depression on the temporal bone that articulates with the condylar process of the mandible.
