Abstract
This case demonstrates the importance of a full investigation when a patient presents with a nonhealing socket and pain after tooth extraction. Mandibular metastases from distant primaries often have poor prognosis, with most patients getting palliative support. A multidisciplinary team approach is required for the management of these rare cases.
