Salivary glands produce saliva, which moistens the mouth to help the person to chew or swallow the food.saliva also contains enzymes that begin the breakdown of the food.
There are four pairs of salivary glands they are as follows -
1.The parotid glands are located between ear and jaw.
2.the submandibular glands are located near the jaw.
3.The sublingual glands are located near the mouth.
4.The buccal glands are located in the mucous membrane lining the cheeks of the mouth.
