Vitamin D levels around dental implants
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at vitamin D and a related protein in the fluid around dental implants. It aims to see if their levels are linked to implant health. This may help guide future care for people with implants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have had dental implants with a permanent crown or bridge for at least one year.
- You have not used antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, or prescription mouthwash in the last 3 months.
- You have not had any gum or implant treatment in the last 6 months.
- You do not smoke, do not drink alcohol, and are not taking vitamin D supplements.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you have no health conditions affecting your bones or immune system.

This study examines how immune cells behave around dental implants that are failing or healthy. Researchers will take small tissue samples during your implant surgery to better understand why some implants develop problems and how to prevent or treat them in the future.
This study looks at how dental implants (artificial tooth roots) are doing, especially around the gum and bone, to help keep them healthy. If you have implants that have been in place for at least 3 years, you may be able to join and get a thorough check-up.
This study checks how short dental implants (6 mm or less) compare to standard ones (over 8 mm) by looking at gum health and certain biomarkers in saliva or gum fluid. If you have implants, this could help understand which type works best over time.
This study looks at how gums react to plaque buildup around dental implants that were previously treated for infection. It may help understand if one treatment method leads to healthier gums.
This study looks at how often gum inflammation (peri-implant mucositis) happens around dental implants in people who previously had gum disease and are now in maintenance care. The results may help clinicians spot risk earlier and improve oral care around implants.
This study looks at whether tiny metal particles from dental implants are linked to the progression of peri-implantitis, an infection of the gum and bone around an implant. It may help researchers understand why some implant infections get worse and could lead to better treatments.
