A ligament is a fibrous connective tissue which attaches bone to bone, and usually serves to hold structures together and keep them stable.

The parotid glands are located inferior and anterior to the ears, between the skin and masseter.
The sublingual glands are beneath the tongue and superior to the submandibular glands.
