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.
The salivary glands produce saliva to moisten the mouth, to help protect teeth from decay and to digest food. The three major salivary glands are the parotid gland, submandibular gland (also called the submaxillary gland), and sublingual glands.
