Vitamin D and Periodontal Disease
Vitamin D is another important factor for periodontal disease risk. A paper by Jagelavičienė et al. found that the risk of gingivitis and chronic periodontitis decreased with sufficient intake of vitamin D, likely due to its roles in:
immunomodulation
anti-inflammation
antiproliferative effects
cell apoptosis
bone metabolism
alveolar bone resorption
prevention of tooth loss
increased antibacterial defenses of gingival epithelial cells
decreased gingival inflammation
