An object or form that is considered an artifact was created artificially and is not often visible on the radiograph. Inadequate handling of the film, chemical contamination, and other factors are among the causes of flaws and artifacts, according to the literature. Because they can resemble diseases or can cover up the region of interest, it is crucial to correctly identify these. This article focuses on a radiolucent object seen on a routine dental radiograph that looks similar to a fracture line on the mandibular right side. We also cover the different sources of artifacts and place emphasis on correctly recognizing them so they aren't mistaken for pathology. This article examines the situation of a woman who appeared to be 28 years old, a radiolucent image on the patient's right side, extending from the coronoid process to the mandibular ramus. The radiolucent artifacts seen in the cephalometric and panoramic radiographic images, in this case, showed a discrepancy between the results on the right mandibular actual condition.
