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.
