Abstract: A precision measurement of the ${D}^{0}$ meson mass has been made using $\ensuremath{\sim}281\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{pb}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ of ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ annihilation data taken with the CLEO-c detector at the $\ensuremath{\psi}(3770)$ resonance. The exclusive decay ${D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}_{S}\ensuremath{\phi}$ has been used to obtain $M({D}^{0})=1864.847\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.150(\mathrm{stat})\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.095(\mathrm{syst})\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}$. This corresponds to $M({D}^{0}{\overline{D}}^{*0})=3871.81\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.36\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}$, and leads to a well-constrained determination of the binding energy of the proposed ${D}^{0}{\overline{D}}^{*0}$ molecule $X(3872)$, as ${E}_{b}=0.6\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.6\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}$.
