SALIVARY GLANDS:-

→ Saliva is mainly produced by three pairs of salivary glands, the parotids, the sub-maxillary or sub-mandibular and the sublinguals.

→ These glands situated just outside the buccal cavity secrete salivary juice into the buccal cavity.

Parotid glands:- Largest glands, located inferior and anterior to the ears.

→ From each gland Stenson's duct arise, that opens into the vestibule opposite to the second maxillary molar tooth.

→ Painful swelling of parotid glands by Paramyxo virus is mumps.

Sub maxillary:- Found at the angles of the lower jaw. From each gland Wharton's duct arise and opens below the tongue, lateral to the lingual frenulum, behind the incisors.

Sub lingual:- These are smallest glands

present beneath the tongue and their ducts are called Rivinus ducts or Bartholin's ducts which open below the tongue.
