All of them: There are many vitamins that when lacking, cause dental problems; but, recommended daily allowances are only the dosages of vitamins that are minimum to prevent deficiency syndromes. The optimal amount of vitamins for health is still debatable. Good balanced nutrition is vital to good health and healing. If eating balanced healthy food is too difficult, our office recomends pharmanex sups.

Vit. D, C, and A : Vitamin d to maintain strong, disease-resistant teeth and jawbones. Vitamin c is important for the health of the connective tissue, or collagen, in your gums. Your body turns the beta-carotene you eat into vitamin a. Vitamin a is important for bone growth. It is also necessary for your tooth development and healthy tooth enamel. Food.

Vitamins: Normal well balanced diet provides you with all the vitamins you need. Supplements will not prevent tooth decay, gum disease, or bone loss if you are otherwise healthy and eating a well rounded diet. Taking a pill will not replace brushing/flossing/regular professional care. Start with an examination by your Dentist, then scrupulously follow his/her advice.
