Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Age: 18 to 50 years
- Gender: female/male
- Patients with insufficient serum 25(OH)D3 levels: <75 nmol/l (<30ng/ml) According to a recently published study from Germany, the prevalence of vitamin D3 deficiency, classified as serum 25(OH)D3 levels <50 nmol/l (20 ng/ml) is 60-75% in winter and 30-45% in summer. Hence, we expect a sufficient number of participants corresponding to the inclusion criteria (serum 25(OH)D3 levels <75 nmol/l (30ng/ml)
- Generally healthy Caucasian
- Indication for bilateral wisdom tooth extraction from physiologically positioned wisdom teeth in the upper jaw
- Patients who are able to follow the instructions of the X-ray technologist
You likely can't join if
- Known allergies/intolerances against any ingredients of the IMP
- Pregnant/lactating women
- Current or former smokers
- Any current or past clinically significant pathology/disease (comorbidity) that, in the opinion of the surgeons or periodontists, might confound the results of the study or poses an additional risk to the subject during participation in the study o Renal insufficiency o Primary hyperparathyroidism o Malignancy o Other severe diseases (e.g. renal, hepatic, thyroid disease, bone metabolic diseases, rheumatoid osteoarthritis, human immunodeficiency syndrome, …) o Diabetes mellitus o Obesity class III (body mass index, BMI ≥40) o Medical conditions requiring daily calcium or antacid use o Medical conditions that result in a high calcium level in the blood or increased calcium excretion in the urine (e.g. as with treatment with certain medicines [benzothiazine derivates]
- Current or previous treatments / therapies, including o Anticoagulants o Immunosuppressive therapy o Systemic antibiotics (within the last 3 months) o Chronic use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, aspirin and corticosteroids o Vitamin, mineral or herbal preparations or food supplements (within the last 3 months) o Rifampicin or isoniazid (against tuberculosis). Tuberculosis will be regarded as a severe pathology, and thus, patients will not be included in the study.
