L'osso ioide in anatomia umana è un osso impari e mediano che si trova alla radice della lingua, a livello della quarta vertebra cervicale, tra mandibola e cartilagine tiroidea della laringe. Si trova nella regione anteriore del collo e ne determina la suddivisione in una regione sopraioidea, più craniale, e una sottoioidea, più caudale. Lo ioide è l'unico osso del corpo umano che non si articola con nessun altro osso, ed è mantenuto in posizione da diverse formazioni muscolari.
