Resumo: OBJECTIVES: The aims of the present study were to evaluate the fluoride (F) concentrations in whole, defatted and chocolate milks commercially available in Brazil and to estimate the daily F intake from these sources. MATERIAL AND METHODS: F concentrations were determined for 23 brands of milks, after HMDS-facilitated diffusion, using a F ion-specific electrode. Possible F ingestion per kg body weight was estimated, based on suggested volumes of formula consumption, for infants aging 1 to 12 months. RESULTS: F concentrations ranged from 0.02 to 1.6 µg/mL F for all brands analyzed. Whole and defatted milks had the lowest F concentrations, ranging from 0.02 to 0.07 µg/mL. With respect to chocolate milks, three brands had F concentrations above 0.5 µg/mL. Some brands of chocolate milks exceeded the dose regarded as the threshold level for the development of dental fluorosis, without taking into account other sources of fluoride intake. CONCLUSION: The high fluoride concentrations found in some brands of chocolate milks in the present study indicate that many products may be important contributors to the total fluoride intake, reinforcing the need of assaying fluoride content of foods and beverages consumed by small children.

OBJETIVOS: Os objetivos do presente estudo foram avaliar as concentrações de flúor (F) em leites integrais, desnatados e achocolatados disponíveis comercialmente no Brasil e estimar a ingestão diária de F a partir destas fontes. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: as concentrações de F foram determinadas em 23 marcas de leite, após difusão facilitada por HMDS, usando um eletrodo íon-específico para F. A ingestão provável de F por Kg de peso corporal foi estimada, baseando-se em volumes sugeridos de consumo de fórmulas infantis, para crianças entre 1 e 12 meses de idade. RESULTADOS: As concentrações de F variaram entre 0,02 e 1,6 µg/mL para todas as marcas analisadas. Os leites integrais e desnatados apresentaram as menores concentrações de F, variando entre 0,02 e 0,07 µg/mL. Com relação aos leites achocolatados, três marcas apresentaram concentrações de F acima de 0,5 µg/mL. Algumas marcas de leites achocolatados excederam a dose de flúor reconhecida como o limite máximo de exposição a fim de se evitar o desenvolvimento da fluorose dentária, sem se considerar outras fontes de ingestão de F. CONCLUSÃO: As altas concentrações de F encontradas em algumas marcas de leites achocolatados no presente estudo indicam que muitos produtos podem contribuir significativamente para a ingestão total de F, reforçando a necessidade de se avaliar o conteúdo de F em alimentos e bebidas consumidos por crianças pequenas.
