title: [Positive and negative effects of fluorine in the human organism. The source of fluorine in the environment].
abstract: In Poland and in other countries around the world, a great number of epidemiological studies have provided evidence that fluorine contributes to decreasing the intensity of dental decay. Nevertheless, the negative effect of its overdose should not be ignored. At present, no data indicating the amount of fluorine uptake is available. A wide diversity of opinions on tolerable limits of fluorine, and its predicted dosage known as optimal, suggests a need to monitor constantly this element throughout the whole country, and not only in selected regions.
