What vitamins do molars lack?

Teeth grinding may be associated with vitamin D deficiency.

Vitamin D plays a key role in calcium absorption and utilization. When vitamin D is deficient, it may affect calcium absorption, resulting in relatively low levels of calcium. Calcium is important for proper muscle and nerve function. Unvoluntary muscle contraction, including masticatory muscles, may trigger teeth grinding to some extent. Although vitamin D deficiency may be a potential factor in teeth grinding, the causes of teeth grinding are often complex and varied. It may also be related to mental stress, poor occlusion, improper sleeping posture, nervous system diseases and other factors. It is not possible to attribute molars to vitamin D deficiency alone. It is necessary to comprehensively consider various possible factors for comprehensive analysis and diagnosis.

For molars suspected to be related to vitamin D deficiency, it is necessary to seek medical attention in time and conduct relevant examinations, such as detecting vitamin D levels and assessing occlusion, to clarify specific causes.
