In human being there are three pairs of salivary glands. Largest gland is parotid gland located in wall of the cheek. The moment food is in mouth salivary gland secretes saliva. Saliva makes food dissolved in saliva. It acts as wetting agent. The mucin of saliva binds the food particles and forms it into a bolus.
Submandibular gland. The paired submandibular glands (historically known as submaxillary glands) are major salivary glands located beneath the floor of the mouth. They each weigh about 15 grams and contribute some 60â67% of unstimulated saliva secretion; on stimulation their contribution decreases in proportion as the parotid secretion rises to 50%.
