NCT03162406

Brief Summary

The subjects participating in the trial will be randomly allocated to either the group receiving the treatment under investigation (scaling and root planning (SRP) accompanied by administration of vitamin D) or to a group receiving standard treatment (SRP in conjunction with placebo) as the control. Random assignment of intervention will be done after subjects have been assessed for eligibility and recruited, but before the intervention to be studied begins. After randomization, the two groups of subjects will be followed in exactly the same way and the only differences between them will be the vitamin D/placebo that they will receive.

  • ≥ 30 years of age,
  • at least 15 teeth (excluding third molars and teeth with advanced decay indicated for extraction),
  • a minimum of 6 teeth with at least one site each with periodontal probing depth (PPD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) ≥ 5 mm,
  • at least 30% of the sites with PPD and CAL ≥ 4 mm and bleeding on probing (BOP);
  • Caucasians (defined as European and North African);
  • subjects who present a 25(OH)D concentration \< 30 ng/mL.

You may not qualify if:

  • pregnancy
  • breastfeeding
  • current smoking and former smoking within the past 5 years-smoking status will be recorded as smoker (current) or non-smoker (never or former);
  • systemic diseases that could affect the progression of periodontitis (e.g. diabetes, immunological disorders, osteoporosis);
  • SRP in the previous 12 months;
  • antibiotic therapy in the previous 6 months;
  • long-term intake of anti-inflammatory medications;
  • need for antibiotic pre-medication for routine dental therapy;
  • any current ongoing immunological, neoplasia, endocrine, haematological, hepatic, renal, gastrointestinal, neurological, or psychiatric abnormalities or medical disease;
  • subjects who used a UV light solarium or any type of vitamin D supplement within two months before the screening visit or planned to travel outside European countries during the study
  • subjets under treatment with drugs that may interfere with vitamin D metabolism (e.g., phenobarbital, phenytoin, and glucocorticoids) and those with past or current history of granulomatosis, especially sarcoidosis, urinary lithiasis, and osteomalacia;
  • subjects who present a 25(OH)D concentration \> 30 ng/mL, serum creatinine \>150 mmol/L and and albumin corrected serum calcium \>2.65 mmol/L (corresponding to 10.6 mg/dL) at screening,
  • any sensitivity or allergy to any of the products that will be used in the study or a history of drug and/or alcohol abuse.
