Salivary Glands and Saliva. 1  parotid glands-produce a serous, watery secretion. 2  submaxillary (mandibular) glands-produce a mixed serous and mucous secretion. 3  sublingual glands-secrete a saliva that is predominantly mucous in character. 4  serous cells, which secrete a watery fluid, essentially devoid of mucus.
Salivary gland infections affect the glands that produce spit (saliva). The infection may be due to bacteria or viruses. There are 3 pairs of major salivary glands: Parotid glands: These are the 2 largest glands. One is located in each cheek over the jaw in front of the ears. Inflammation of 1 or more of these glands is called parotitis, or parotiditis. Submandibular glands: These 2 glands are located just under both sides of the lower jaw and carry saliva up to the floor of the mouth under the tongue.
