Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 20–60 with vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/mL) requiring a posterior maxillary or mandibular implant and no prior implant failure or bone-healing conditions.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without vitamin D deficiency or those with conditions that impair healing despite supplementation may not experience a benefit.

What this trial studies
The trial investigates the effect of systemic vitamin D supplementation on osseointegration of dental implants in adults aged 20–60 with confirmed vitamin D deficiency. Participants receive vitamin D and are evaluated for implant integration, healing, and any complications. The study considers factors such as surgical technique, bone quality, and patient health to understand how vitamin D may influence bone mineralization and implant success. Outcomes focus on evidence of successful osseointegration and functional stability of implants. The trial is conducted at Future University in Egypt with a defined eligibility criteria to enroll suitable candidates.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, vitamin D supplementation could improve implant stability and long-term success for patients with deficiency.
How similar studies have gone: Previous work suggests nutritional status and vitamin D can impact bone healing, but direct evidence for implant osseointegration is limited and this study adds targeted data.
