Abstract

Background:Periodontal disease has been associated with vitamin D deficiency in numerous populations. A possible role of vitamin D in periodontal health is also supported by findings that polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor gene are associated with periodontitis. Hence the aim of our study was to determine anti inflammatory effects of calcium and vitamin D oral supplementation in subjects with chronic periodontitis undergoing scaling and root planning.
