Potential fluoride toxicity from oral medicaments: A review

Abstract

The beneficial effects of fluoride on human oral health are well studied. There are numerous studies demonstrating that a small amount of fluoride delivered to the oral cavity decreases the prevalence of dental decay and results in stronger teeth and bones. However, ingestion of fluoride more than the recommended limit leads to toxicity and adverse effects. In order to update our understanding of fluoride and its potential toxicity, we have described the mechanisms of fluoride metabolism, toxic effects, and management of fluoride toxicity. The main aim of this review is to highlight the potential adverse effects of fluoride overdose and poorly understood toxicity. In addition, the related clinical significance of fluoride overdose and toxicity has been discussed.

Keywords: Fluoridation, Fluoride, Oral health, Toxicity, Water fluoridation


Conclusion

The beneficial role of fluoride for the maintenance of good oral health has been known for many decades and strongly evidenced by scientific research. However, it must be emphasized that tooth decay (dental caries) is not caused by fluoride deficiency and fluoride supplementation will never reverse the active or gross carious lesions. Since the level of safety of fluoride is low, products that contain a high level of fluoride should be stored and used according to the recommend-dation and should be monitored by a qualified dental professional especially in children and pregnant women. In children, the swallowing reflex is not very well developed and the fluoride containing dental products are flavored hence increasing the possibility of a child to consume an excessive dose of fluoride. In areas with high fluoride levels in the drinking water, alternative dental products with low fluoride levels should be prescribed and monitored.

 

불소가 구강건강에 미치는 긍정적인 영향에 대해서는 지난 수십년간 과학적인 연구결과들에 의해 검증 되었으며 잘 알려져 있다. 그러나  충치는 불소가 부족해서 생기는 질명이 아니며 불소첨가물이 활성화된 우식병소를 가역적으로 발꿀 수 없다는 사실은 강조 되어야 마땅하다.  불소의 안전 수치는 낮아야 하며 고농도 불소를 함유한 제품들은 주의사항에 맞개 보관 되어야 하고 자격이 있는 치과전문가에의해 모니터 되어야 한다. (특힌 임신부와 어린이아들의 경우) 어린이들의 경우 불소함유제품을 과도하게 삼킬 가능성이 많은것이 사실이다. 식수에 고농도의 불소가 함유된 지역에서는 저농도의 불소함유제품이 처방 되어야 하고 모니터 되어야한다.
