Resumo(s)
Tem sido amplamente descrito na literatura o impacto da ingestão de flúor no aparecimento da fluorose dentária. De igual forma, as estatísticas demonstram um aumento da prevalência de fluorose contrariamente à diminuição da cárie dentária. Avaliaram-se as concentrações de flúor presentes nas águas engarrafadas com e sem gás e nos produtos alimentares infantis comercializados em Portugal, com o objetivo de detetar potenciais situações de sobredosagem de flúor e suas implicações. Destes, algumas marcas revelaram ultrapassar as doses diárias de flúor recomendadas por Kilograma de peso corporal (0,05-0,07 mg/kg/dia). Palavras-chave: flúor, fluorose dentária, cárie dentária, ingestão de flúor, leites em pó, água engarrafada.
The association of fluoride intake and the development of dental fluorosis has been widely reported in literature. Statistics have also shown an increasing prevalence of dental fluorosis whereas a decrease in the tooth decay prevalence has been reported. The fluoride concentrations have been assessed in bottled water with and without gas and in infant alimentary products sold in Portugal. The aim was to detect potential fluoride overdose and its implications. From these products, some brands revealed to exceed the minimum safe level intake (0,05-0,07 mg/kg/day). Key words: fluoride, dental fluorosis, tooth decay, fluoride intake, infant formula, bottled water.
