Salivary Glands

The major salivary glands are the largest and most important salivary glands. They produce most of the saliva in your mouth. There are three pairs of major salivary glands: the parotid glands, the submandibular glands, and the sublingual glands. parotid glands produce a serous, watery secretion. submaxillary (mandibular) glands produce a mixed serous and mucous secretion. sublingual glands secrete a saliva that is predominantly mucous in character.
