|**Group A** – 30 Patients with Vitamin D levels between 15-30 ng/ml will be given conventional treatment i.e., Lycopene 16 mg daily in two equally divided doses for 3 months + Benzydamine hydrochloride mouthwash 0.15% 3 times a day for 4 weeks.

**Group B** – 30 Patients with Vitamin D levels between 15-30 ng/ml will be given conventional treatment as mentioned in Group A + Vitamin D supplementation (60,000 IU weekly for 8 weeks).

|Pre-treatment serum vitamin D level, burning sensation and interincisal mouth opening will be measured. Then burning sensation and interincisal mouth opening will be measured and recorded at baseline, 1st,2nd, and 3rd month.

All the patients will be prescribed vitamin D supplementation under the guidance of a General Physician. In Group A, after 3months, those patients will be referred to General Physician for vitamin D supplementation.
