Salivary gland

Redirected from Salivary glands

The salivary gland is positioned under the tongue and at the back of the mouth. The salivary glands produce saliva, which keeps the mouth and other parts of the digestive system moist. It also helps break down food and allows food to travel through the body more freely.
