The screw was the portion of the safety glasses that connects the temple/arm to the rim/frame. Dentists should be aware of this radiographic artifact that may be seen much more frequently when working on the maxillary posterior areas of the jaw. Recommendations of safety glasses removal during X-rays or the use of different style safety glasses in your practice will solve this problem. 8 SDDS BULLETIN May/June 2022 — VOLUME 39 ◊ NUMBER 3
