I've been seeing these types of studies a lot. Seems like it would be really important for preventing infection and helping the jaws to heal.I personally take 7000 iu a day.

Patients with low blood levels of vitamin D are at increased risk of death and serious complications after noncardiac surgery, suggests a study in Anesthesia & Analgesia.
"Vitamin D concentrations were associated with a composite of in-hospital death, serious infections, and serious cardiovascular events," according to the new research by Dr Alparslan Turan and colleagues of the Cleveland Clinic. They believe their results warrant further study to see if giving vitamin D supplementation before surgery can reduce the risk of these adverse outcomes.
Most patients did not meet the recommended 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration of greater than 30 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). The median vitamin D level was 23.5 ng/mL--more than 60 percent of patients were in the range of vitamin D insufficiency (10 to 30 ng/mL). Nearly 20 percent had vitamin D deficiency (less than 10 ng/mL).

Don't just take a large does of vit D because you think it's right. It's important to have your blood levels tested so you know you are falling within the vitamin D sweet spot. Too much can also be bad.
Dr Rhonda Patrick has some great articles and videos on this subject.

Vitamin D is synthesised by exposure to UVB. In Europe in Winter the UV Index is practically always at 0 or 1, meaning you won't get any UVB. That is where "Winterdepression" comes from. The lack of Vitamin D in the winter months causes people to become depressed. Regular blood tests and vitamin D supplementation are always the best bet.
Furthermore, aren't we interested in aesthetics here? UVA exposure (which remains constant year round, independent of cloud coverage and season) will cause skin ageing. Wear sunscreen!

this is super important. Arnett and Gunson actually recommend patients to take 5000 iu a day several months before surgery.

Very important. It's vital for bone health and more effective than antibiotic for immune function.

always look at all sides of the story.
Hmm when I do skiing I'm always brown after few days... so the UVB get to my skin
