Using three- and four-body decays of D mesons produced in semileptonic b-hadron decays, precision measurements of D meson mass differences are made together with a measurement of the D⁰ mass. The measurements are based on a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb⁻¹ collected in pp collisions at 7\,TeV. Using the decay D⁰ →K⁺ K⁻ K⁻ π⁺, the D⁰ mass is measured to be M(D⁰) = 1864.75 ±0.15 (stat) ±0.11 (syst) MeV/c². The mass differences M(D⁺) - M(D⁰) = 4.76 ±0.12 (stat) ±0.07 (syst) MeV/c² and M(D⁺ₛ) - M(D⁺) = 98.68 ±0.03 (stat) ±0.04 (syst) MeV/c² are measured using the D⁰ →K⁺ K⁻ π⁺ π⁻ and D⁺₍ₛ₎ →K⁺K⁻ π⁺ modes.
