Scientists Discover a Way to Reduce the Risk of Dental Implant Rejection

MOSCOW - Russian scientists have discovered that systematic monitoring of vitamin D levels in the blood of patients preparing for dental implantation and correcting its deficiency under medical supervision can minimize the risk of implant rejection.

Scientists Discover a Way to Reduce the Risk of Dental Implant Rejection

TL;DR

  • Systematic monitoring and correction of vitamin D levels can minimize dental implant rejection.
  • A study by Sechenov University found a 97.4% success rate in patients treated for vitamin D deficiency before implantation.
  • The therapy involved cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) at individualized doses under endocrinologist supervision.
  • Timely screening and compensation for vitamin D deficiency significantly improve treatment success.
  • Severe vitamin D deficiency requires normalization of levels under medical supervision before implantation to avoid high rejection risk.
  • The study results were published in the international journal Applied Sciences (MDPI).
