Abstract
Background: The present interview with Mr. Federal Deputy Carlos Bezerra deals with Bill 6359/2013 of 2013, which aims to revoke Law No. 6,050, of May 24, 1974, which “provides for the fluoridation of water in supply systems when there is a treatment plant ”. The PL justifies that it was found that the high intake of this substance caused fluorosis. Objective: to get to know PL 6359/2013 better, to ask about other possible effects of water fluoridation that PL 6359/2013 can remedy. Methods: the interview was conducted using the content of PL 6359/2013 as a basis. International studies, published mostly in indexed scientific journals, have provided the means for informing additional questions, which relate water fluoridation to the possibility of other disorders, including a possibility of reducing cognitive needs. The socio-economic effects of water fluoridation were also superficially possible. Results and Discussion: PL 6359/2013 was based on consistent arguments, and its proposition is understandable to legislators. Issues addressed that may relate water fluoridation to other health or social situations can be raised again in an appropriate future situation. Conclusions: PL 6359/2013 was founded on solid scientific and empirical evidence and proposed the amendment of the previous legislation (Law No. 6,050, of May 24, 1974), aimed at preserving the health of the population.
