Fluoride in still bottled water in Australia

Abstract: Background: This study measured the fluoride content in a range of still bottled waters available in Australia. Increasing decay rates in children have prompted speculation that bottled water consumption may be impacting on dental caries rates. International studies have demonstrated that the fluoride levels in bottled water are often negligible, however there is little information about the fluoride content of still bottled water in Australia. Methods: One hundred different brands (300 samples) of still bottl… Show more

“…Besides, it constitutes an irregularity; this situation may induce the public to consume a product with the intention of obtaining some benefit that the bottle water could not really provide. This finding reinforces the warnings raised by several researchers and also reveals the needs of a periodical checking in order to confirm the accomplishment of the legislation 10,14,17,18,[20][21][22][23]25,26,29 . Furthermore, the parameters that define hazard to health and instruct the content of labelling were diverse and should be revised as many of them can represent exposure to dental fluorosis of esthetic significance for the children.…”

“…Studies have investigated the fluoride content of bottled waters and shown that they typically contain low levels of fluoride . Bore water contains variable levels of fluoride that depends on the nature of the rocks and prevalence of fluoride‐bearing minerals .…”

“…A maior concentração encontrada (0,36 mgF/l) foi em uma água adicionada de sais, que não trazia essa informação no rótulo. Foram observadas variações percentuais, para mais e para menos, entre os teores informados nos rótulos e aqueles obtidos durante as análises, assim como encontrado em outros trabalhos [11][12][13]24,25 . Algumas dessas diferenças podem ser atribuídas a flutuações naturais do teor de flúor na fonte de captação principalmente se for levado em consideração o caráter transversal do estudo.…”

“…Concentrações baixas de flúor em águas minerais também foram identificadas em outros estudos nacionais e internacionais [10][11][12]14,15,26,27,29 . O estado do Ceará tem regiões com condições climáticas diferentes (sertão, serras e praias), mas mesmo naquelas em que a média das temperaturas máximas anuais situa-se acima de 32,5º C, a concentração mínima de flúor na água ingerida deve se manter pelo menos em 0,45 mgF/l 21 .…”
