In many way, they really are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That means that, like the rest of the body, the amount of nutrients you&#8217;re getting can have an influence on the health of your dental implants. One that people often don&#8217;t get enough of is Vitamin D; here&#8217;s more information about this important vitamin, and what people can do to get enough of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Importance of Vitamin D to Dental Implants&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary support for the dental implants comes from the jawbone, which serves as it&#8217;s foundation. Thus, the health of your implant is heavily dependent on how strong your bone tissue is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vitamin D is an incredibly important nutrient in this regard. You&#8217;ve probably heard that calcium can support your bone health, but that calcium can only be properly absorbed with the help of Vitamin D. Therefore, a good intake of this nutrient is critically important to the success of your dental implant in the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Get Enough Vitamin D<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As vital as this vitamin is, it&#8217;s one that many people aren&#8217;t getting enough of. A recent analysis of the last 20 years of National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys found that around 25% of Americans were deficient in Vitamin D, and an additional 40% were getting less than sufficient amounts of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For that reason, it may we worth covering how people can get enough of this core nutrient in their diet. The most important thing is sunlight; this is the primary way that most people will get this nutrient. Spending time outside during the day is great for your bone health, in addition to being a great way to destress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vitamin D is naturally found in all kinds of fish, from tuna to cod. Cod fish oil is therefore an excellent vitamin D supplement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many other foods, like orange juice and milk, are often fortified with vitamin D. This allows them to further supplement this nutrient that isn&#8217;t heavily available in people&#8217;s diets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think you might be seriously deficient in vitamin D, you could always talk to your doctor about taking a certain amount of it in the form of a vitamin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Forever Young Dentistry of Sterling Heights, we believe that understanding dentistry means understanding people.
