DentalReach Academic Editor:
Review the association between vitamin D status and periodontal health, along with emerging research into topical vitamin D as an adjunctive approach. The practical reading is to separate established principles from emerging claims, then match the recommendation to diagnosis, risk, patient preference and operator competence.
DentalReach Critical Appraisal:
The decision should be anchored to inflammation, attachment and bone loss, complexity, progression risk and modifiable factors. An adjunct is valuable only when it improves outcomes beyond meticulous cause-related therapy and maintenance.
