Resumo: This study analyzes international historical trends in the use of different types of materials in dental practice. The author describes the chemical properties of their ingredients and the potential and observed adverse effects in patients and dental technicians resulting from clinical or occupational exposure to various metals like beryllium, used to produce metal alloys. The growing use of various products (resin cements, ionomer cements, aesthetic restorative materials, resins, endodontal cements, and others) based on the compound bisphenol-A, whose chemical structure is similar to that of estrogen. Considering the demographic and contemporary work force characteristics of those involved in dental practice in the Brazil, the study highlights the possible effect of the use of these materials in both male and female patients and all age strata, as well as in health professionals with occupational exposure to products containing bisphenol-A.

São especificados as propriedades químicas de seus constituintes e os efeitos adversos potenciais e observados em pacientes e técnicos de prótese, decorrentes da exposição ocupacional a metais diversos como o berílio, usado na confecção de ligas metálicas. Posteriormente, se analisa a transformação observada na prática odontológica, a partir da década de sessenta, com a introdução crescente de diversos produtos (cimentos resinosos, cimentos de ionômero, materiais restauradores estéticos, resinas, cimentos endodônticos, entre outros) à base do composto bisfenol A, com estrutura química apresentando similaridades aos hormônios estrogênicos. O trabalho destaca o possível efeito no Brasil, decorrente do amplo emprego desses materiais em pacientes de ambos os sexos e todas as faixas etárias, bem como em profissionais de saúde com exposição ocupacional aos produtos contendo bisfenol A, considerando as características demográficas e da força de trabalho contemporânea exercendo a prática odontológica no país.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2002-04-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo avaliado pelos Parestext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1698Reports in Public Health; Vol. 18 No. 2 (2002): March/AprilCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 18 n. 2 (2002): Março/Abril1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1698/3384https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/1698/3385Coelho, Antonio Jorge Molinárioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:26:34Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/1698Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:59.424883Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
