Got D? Holistic Dentistry in Fresno

pediatric dentist

Most of us know that vitamin D is important to healthy teeth and bones, but many of us fail to get adequate amounts. As a holistic dentist in Fresno, Mirelez Wellness Dental reminds you of the importance of vitamin D.

Vitamin D has been called the “sunshine” vitamin. That’s because it is produced in the skin in response to sunlight. Of course, you can also get vitamin D in the foods you eat, and by taking supplements.

One of the most important things that vitamin D does for the body is regulate the absorption of calcium and phosphorus. It also helps normal immune system function.

If you don’t get enough vitamin D, you could develop problems like soft or fragile bones. And of course, it plays an essential role in keeping your teeth strong and healthy, working in conjunction with calcium. (Maybe you’ve noticed that calcium supplements frequently include vitamin D.)
