ABSTRACT

Commonly dental fluorosis has been considered as the only pathology that can produce the excess of fluor in human beings. Recent studies have proved the opposite, as it effects dental structures, we can also see them effected in different grades the next systems: osseous, digestive, reproductive, urinarius, immunological, endocrine and central nervous system producing genotoxical and carcinogenic effects. That is why it is fundamental to widely know all the absortion process and deposit of this mineral inside the organism, to understand in a broader way the involvement of other organism systems. Also it is important to valve the actions made concerning defluorization of water for human intake, high costs of such process, which normally result to be the justification for not fulfilling these processes.
