Resumo: Purpose: To evaluate the fluoride concentration in bottled mineral water and soft drinks marketed in Manaus, Amazonas state, Brazil. Methods: Fifteen commercial brands of mineral water and seven types of “guaraná”-based soft drinks sold in the Amazon region were analyzed. The beverages of three different batches were acquired from the local market. The samples were analyzed in duplicate, using an ORION 720-A ion analyzer with the ORION 96-09 ion-specific electrode, previously calibrated using standard solutions containing from 0.125 to 1.0g μF/mL. The readings in mV were converted into ppm of fluoride by linear regression. Results: The samples of mineral water and soft drinks displayed fluoride concentration ranges of 0.04-1.02 and 0.04-0.14 μF/mL, respectively. Only one brand of mineral water had a concentration of fluoride higher than the official Brazilian recommendation for human consumption. Conclusion: In general, the fluoride concentration in the bottled mineral water and soft drink beverages sold in the Amazon is negligible to provide any preventive effect in terms of caries control, even though the bottles of mineral water advertise the content as “Fluoridated Mineral Water”.

Metodologia: Foram analisadas 15 marcas comerciais de água mineral e 7 tipos de refrigerantes à base de guaraná da Amazônia, adquiridos de três diferentes lotes, no mercado local. As amostras foram analisadas, em duplicata, utilizando um analisador de íons, ORION 720-A, e um eletrodo íon-específico, ORION 96-09, previamente calibrados com soluções-padrão, contendo de 0,125 a 1,0g μF/mL. As leituras foram obtidas em mV e transformadas em ppm de flúor por regressão linear. Resultados: Foram observadas concentrações de flúor variando de 0,04-1,02 e 0,04-0,14 μF/mL em águas minerais e refrigerantes, respectivamente. Apenas uma marca de água mineral apresentou concentração maior que a recomendada no Brasil para consumo humano. Conclusão: Em geral, a concentração de flúor nas águas minerais e refrigerantes, em Manaus, AM, é desprezível em termos de efeito preventivo para controle de cárie, embora os produtores destaquem na embalagem “Água Mineral Fluoretada”.EDIPUCRS - Editora Universitária da PUCRS2009-06-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed Articledescriptiveapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/article/view/4481Revista Odonto Ciência; Vol. 24 No. 3 (2009); 240 - 243Revista Odonto Ciência; v. 24 n. 3 (2009); 240 - 2431980-65230102-9460reponame:Revista odonto ciência (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSenghttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/article/view/4481/4504Costa, Lívea Nancy Bulcão da SilvaRebelo, Maria Augusta Bessainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2013-11-11T13:06:25Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/4481Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/foPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/fo/oai||odontociencia@pucrs.br1980-65230102-9460opendoar:2013-11-11T13:06:25Revista odonto ciência (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
