Özet
Öz: Flor çocukların diş sağlığı ve kemik gelişimi için önemli bir eser elementtir. Eksikliğinde diş çürüklerinde artma görülmektedir. Malatya sularında flor düzeyini belirlemek ve sonuçlara göre koruyucu sağlık politikası geliştirmek için bu çalışma yapılmıştır. İnceleme için Malatya şehir merkezine farklı uzaklıklarda bulunan sekiz ayrı su istasyonundan ve yöresel iki kaynak ve bir kuyu suyundan örnekler yöntemine uygun olarak alındı. Ölçüm için potansiyometrik yöntem, Jenway 3040 model iyonmetre ile aynı marka E94 model flor seçici elektrod ve J93 Ag/AgCI referans elektrodu kullanıldı. Malatya şehir şebeke suyunda flor düzeyi ortalama 0.3 mg/L, yöresel kullanım sularında ise 0.15-0.35 mg/L arasında olduğu belirlendi. TSE içme suyu standartlarına göre 18.4 °C hava sıcaklığı (Malatya Nisan 1998 maksimum değer ortalaması) için en az flor düzeyi 0.7 mg/L olmalıdır. Bulduğumuz düşük flor düzeyleriyle bölgemizdeki gelişme, çağındaki çocuklarda yaygın diş sağlığı problemlerini de göz önüne alarak Malatya ilinde flor desteğinin gerekli olduğu sonucuna varıldı.
Abstract: Fluoride is an important trace element for dental health and bone development in children. In fluoride-deficient patients, there is an increase in the prevalence of dental caries. The present study was undertaken to determine the fluoride level in the city water sources of Malatya and, based on the results, to support the preventive measures taken by the Ministry of Health in that city. For fluoride assessments, water samples were collected in trace element-free polyvinyl-capped tubes from eight different city water stations at varying distances from the town center, from two regional water springs and from one well in use by the local inhabitant. A Jenvay 3040 model ionmeter, its E94 model fluoride-selecting electrode and a J93 Ag/AgCI reference electrode was used in fluoride assaying by potentiometric method. The fluoride level in the city water system was 0.3 mg/L, and in local springs and well water system within a range of 0.15-0.35 mg/L. According to the Institute of Turkish Standards, the acceptable water fluoride level at 18.4 °C (the mean water temperature for Malatya in April 1998) should be 0.7 mg/L. When the results of the present study and the dental health status of children in Malatya were taken into consideration, it was concluded that fluoride supplementation is urgently needed for children living in Malatya.
