Fluoretação das águas de abastecimento público em um município com diferentes fontes de captação

Maintaining the levels of fluoride ion in public water supply within the parameters of adequacy it becomes essential so the measure carries a greater impact on caries prevention and control, without increasing the prevalence of dental fluorosis. Thus, it is necessary a rigorous control of the process, avoiding the undesired effects at levels above recommended levels, as well as avoiding levels below the recommended that do not offer the highest benefit. The aim of this study was to analyze the content of fluoride in public water supply in the city of Birigui, SP, with different sources of supply, checking if the fluoride levels are within the recommended. The samples were collected monthly from points previously established, with the knowledge of the distribution network of water and identifying the amount and location of supply sources and water treatment plant. Analyses were performed in duplicate in the period from January to December of 2009, in the laboratory - NEPESCO - of the Dental School of Araçatuba, Univ Estadual Paulista – UNESP, using an ion analyzer coupled to a specific electrode for fluoride. Of the total samples (n = 512), 44% (n = 224) had adequate levels and 56% (n = 288) inadequate levels, 10% (n = 49) lower levels and 46% (n = 239) showed levels above the recommended. There were differences in results when comparing the analysis of different sources. The fluoride concentration in the majority of the samples from deep wells was classified as inadequate not offering the desired benefit, or exposing the population to the risk of dental fluorosis.

Root reconstructed with mineral trioxide aggregate and guided tissue regeneration in apical surgery: a 5-year follow-up

Cirurgias do Periápice

Apical surgeries are part of a segment of root canal treatment by which we can correct or eliminate iatrogenic deficiencies arising from conventional endodontic treatment. Currently no consensus among authors regarding to the factors linked to the surgery success as the execution of an apex resection followed by retropreparation and retrofilling. The apex resection performed 3mm from apical vertex allows the elimination of most apical ramifications, and it is a consensus part of the treatment. The preparation of cavities using ultrasonic tips has advantages over those made with drills such as better cleaning of the cavity, the possibility of lower cutting angle of the apical resection and deeper retropreparation. Another detail to consider is the type of tip, since the diamond tips in a more angulated inclination have higher cutting efficiency but causing increased formation of debris on the dentin walls. Finally, filling the cavity with an apical filling material allows proper sealing of the intracanal contents favoring apical healing.

Isolamento e identificação das micobactérias em águas tratadas provenientes do sistema de abastecimento de Araraquara-SP

Water quality is very important for the health and the population welfare, and the public supply system must provide water quality and suffi cient quantity for the entire population. Water treatment stations, are the main way to obtain water quality. When this doesn’t occur, several problems can affect the population, in this case, using water with poor quality is a constant risk of emergence causing various diseases. The elimination of microorganisms in treated water reduces competition, encouraging the multiplication of chlorine resistant bacteria as Mycobacterium genus frequently isolated from treated and chlorinated water. Considering the lack of indication from examinations of mycobacteria routine laboratory for quality control of drinking water and other human uses, the objective was to verify the presence isolate and identify the environmental mycobacteria in the system water source surface of Araraquara - SP. We analyzed 40 water samples, distributed as follows: ten water gross collected at Station Water Treatment Plant (WTP), harvested after ten fi ltration; ten collected in the reservoir after chlorination and ten in the network distribution. Were recovered 43 isolates of mycobacteria. All isolates were subjected to PCR-PRA. The mycobacteria were identifi ed as M. lentifl avum, M. parafortuitum, M. genavense, M. gordonae, M. fortuitum, M. confl uent, M. duvalii, M. avium subspecies paratuberculosis and M. szulgai. With these results, was concluded that water is an important source of environmental mycobacteria probably related to several human diseases, suggesting the carrying out continuous monitoring of the microorganisms in the system drinking water.

Oxidação e remoção de ferro e manganês em águas para fins de abastecimento público ou industrial: uma abordagem geral

The iron and manganese ions are present in a high frequency in water source in Brazil. Despite of the frequency in which such problems occur, the way the problem is faced is still traditional, i.e. focusing on oxidative process instead of solid-liquid separation. The treatment can be very simple, in groundwater, or very complex, when metals are present together with organic matter in water. This article presents a review of principal works besides some important aspects about iron and manganese in natural water, occurrence, forms in natural water, organic complexes, oxidation and removal applying solid/liquid separation processes. Further, a new strategy for iron and manganese removal is presented. The information described does not exhaust the matter, so a large bibliography was cited at the end of the article.

Qualidade da água no município de Lençóis Paulista-SP e Comparação entre métodos de purificação de água

The purpose of a water treatment plant (WTP) is to provide quality water to the population in the municipality where it is operate, being directly linked to the health of the community. The efficiency of a water treatment is directly related to the quality and reliability of the methods used. The analytical results of any laboratory test or calibration is a critical process for any company today. A tool used to assist in a quality management system process is ISO/IEC 17025:2005. Given the above, the objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of an ETA located in Lençóis Paulista-SP, using the analytical results obtained by physical, chemical and microbiological determinations in the period 1-30 October 2015. Such determinations are grounded in compliance with current Ordinance 2914 the Ministry of Health and the Quality Management System, which is required for all laboratories carrying out laboratory tests for control and surveillance of water quality for human consumption
