Description
Summary:Vitamin D is involved in the immune system by regulating inflammatory processes. Over the recent decades, there has been an increase in studies investigating the potential influence of vitamin D status on inflammatory diseases and conditions. However, research on the link between vitamin D and periodontitis remains scarce. Hence, we aimed to examine the relationship between serum 25(OH)D levels and periodontitis in an adult population in Northern Norway.
