The digestive functions of saliva include moistening food, and helping to create a food bolus, so it can be swallowed easily. Saliva contains the enzyme amylase that breaks some starches down into maltose and dextrin. Thus, digestion of food occurs within the mouth, even before food reaches the stomach.

The other functions of saliva are:
Lubrication of food
Solvent action
Cleansing action
Digestive function
Excretory function
Helps in speech
Role in regulating water content in body
Buffering function

Hope that helps you......
