好的牙·讯|美国国会众议员Emanuel Cleaver近日联合八位民主党议员正式提出《保护牙釉质、侵蚀和牙齿健康治疗法案》(简称《保护牙齿法案》)。该法案旨在修订《安全饮用水法》,要求美国环境保护署(EPA)在发布氟化物饮用水标准更新提案前,必须委托国家科学、工程和医学院(NASEM)进行独立、快速的证据审查,并将完整报告纳入联邦公告。

根据法案内容,EPA在提出氟化物最大污染物水平目标或国家饮用水标准前,需与NASEM达成协议,开展为期90至180天的快速证据审查。EPA须向NASEM提供所有支持提案的科学数据,并强制公开审查结果。法案强调此举将确保氟化物政策免受政治干预,完全基于严谨的非党派科学依据。

Cleaver议员在声明中指出:“当政策决策关乎全美民众健康安全及潜在牙科护理支出时,联邦政府必须依靠遵循最严格科学协议的非党派独立专家。我们已目睹公共卫生领域政治化的危害,不能任由其像龋齿般扩散。”法案联署人包括来自佛罗里达、路易斯安那等州的八位民主党众议员。

美国牙科协会(ADA)公开支持该法案。协会主席布Brett Kessler博士表示,NASEM作为科学审查的“黄金标准”,将强化公共卫生决策的完整性,可靠消除社区水氟化的错误信息,为各州提供客观证据评估。

ADA强调,自1945年推行以来,水氟化使美国儿童和成人龋齿率降低25%,每年为美国节省约60亿美元牙科支出,社区人均节约32美元治疗费用。疾控中心数据显示,2020年美国72.7%人口使用氟化公共供水系统,若移除氟化物将导致严重口腔健康后果。
