VITAMIN-D AND TEETH

by Dr. Shipra Rawal ( Dr. Rawal Dental Centre )

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that helps your body absorb calcium, an important component for building strong bones and teeth.

Because vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium, it's essential for healthy teeth and gums. Vitamin-D deficiency is linked to two main oral issues:

• Tooth Decay: As stated before, vitamin D plays a key role in absorbing and retaining calcium and phosphorous for bone and tooth mineralisation. When your vitamin D levels are unregulated, it weakens your teeth, making you highly susceptible to cavities, fractures, and decay.

• Periodontitis: Vitamin D is essential for the maintenance of periodontal health. Adequate levels of the vitamin have a “perio-protective” effect and can decrease susceptibility to periodontal diseases.

“You probably don't need another reason to go outside and enjoy the sun today. While you're soaking up some sun rays, definitely stop and think about how amazing it is your body can turn sunlight into vitamin D, which is critical for bone, tooth, and gum health.” – Dr Shipra Rawal, (Dr Rawal Dental Centre, Arya Samaj Road, New Delhi).

If you're concerned about your vitamin D levels, see your primary care physician and discuss your options. Between sunlight, food, and supplements, you can get the vitamin D you need for a strong and healthy smile.
