0002/2020 - Teores de flúor em mananciais e na rede de abastecimento público de municípios de Pernambuco. Fluorine contents in springs in the public supply networks of municipalities in the Pernambuco.
A fluoretação é considerada uma medida eficaz e de grande abrangência no combate à cárie dentária. Apesar de ser obrigatória no Brasil desde 1974, sua implantação permanece de forma desigual no país. Teve-se como objetivo descrever e analisar os teores de flúor nas águas da rede pública de abastecimento da 2ª macrorregião do estado de Pernambuco em municípios com 50.000. Trata-se de estudo descritivo a partir da comparação de dados da Companhia Pernambucana de Saneamento (Compesa), do projeto Vigiflúor, do Sistema de Informação de Vigilância da Qualidade da Água para Consumo Humano (Sisagua), do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) e do Sistema Nacional de Informação sobre Saneamento (SNIS), sobre a fluoretação de águas em municípios da 2ª macrorregião de saúde de Pernambuco. Apesar dos municípios estudados não possuírem fluoretação artificial, teores significativos de flúor natural foram encontrados nos mananciais que abastecem a região. No entanto, esses valores de flúor não permanecem constantes nas águas da rede de abastecimento dos municípios estudados, não havendo, portanto, efeito preventivo contra a cárie. A fluoretação artificial é uma medida eficaz na prevenção da cárie, portanto, deve ser expandida nas regiões ainda não fluoretadas.

Abstract:
Fluoridation is considered an effective and wide-ranging measure in the fight against dental caries. Despite being mandatory in Brazil since 1974 the imlementation occurred and remains unequally in the country. The objective was to describe and analyze fluorine levels in the waters of the public supply network of the 2nd macroregion of the state of Pernambuco in municipalities with 50,000 inhabitants or more. This is a descriptive study based on a comparison of dataPernambuco Sanitation Company (Compesa), the Vigifluor Project, the Water Quality Surveillance Information System for Human Consumption (Sisagua) the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) National Sanitation Information System (SNIS), on the fluoridation of waters in municipalities of the 2nd health macroregion of Pernambuco. Although the studied municipalities do not have artificial fluoridation, significant levels of natural fluorine were found in the sources that supply the regions. However, these values of fluorine do not remain constant in the waters of the supply network of the studied municipalities, therefore there is no preventive effect against caries. Artificial fluoridation is an effective measure in preventing caries and therefore should be expanded in regions that are not yet fluoridated.
