title: Primary intraosseous carcinoma of the mandible.
abstract: Primary intraosseous carcinoma (PIOC) is a rare lesion in the jawbone. We report a case of de novo PIOC of the mandible, first seen by the family dentist. Our case highlights that radiographic examination is one of the most effective methods for detecting PIOCs.
