Is saliva secreted by endocrine glands found along the lingual frenulum?

No, saliva is not secreted by endocrine glands found along the lingual frenulum. Saliva is primarily produced by exocrine glands, specifically the salivary glands, including the submandibular, parotid, and sublingual glands. The lingual frenulum itself does not contain glands that secrete saliva; rather, it helps anchor the tongue to the floor of the mouth.


Salivary glands whose ducts open lateral to lingual frenulum?

The sublingual glands are salivary glands whose ducts open laterally to the lingual frenulum. They are located under the tongue and produce mostly mucous saliva to help lubricate food during chewing and swallowing.

Which gland does the saliva comes from?

Saliva comes from glands located in the mouth. The major glands are 2 Parotid, 2 Submandibular, and 2 Sublingal. The duct each Parotid gland can be seen on the cheek near the 2nd upper molars. The ducts to the Submandibualr glands are just lateral to the frenulum of the tongue. You can cause these glands to secrete by getting a popsicle stick and lightly poking and messaging them. Smaller glands exist throughout the mouth and also contribute to salivary secretions. This includes the inside of the lips, palate, cheeks, and tongue and secrete via small ducts. the cells that produce saliva are mucous cells and serous cells of the salivary glands. The epithelial cells of the ducts modify the saliva before it is secreted into the mouth. drazx is the original author of this answer
