Signs that the salivary glands may not be working properly include persistent dry mouth (xerostomia), difficulty swallowing or chewing food, and an increase in dental issues such as cavities or gum disease. Additionally, a lack of saliva can lead to discomfort, bad breath, and changes in taste. If these symptoms are present, it may indicate an underlying condition affecting salivary function. Consulting a healthcare professional is advisable for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Why do most small salivary gland tumors begin in the palate?

I do not know that it is true or not. I presume that this is true. The reason is very simple for this fact. The secretions from the salivary gland from the palate can not be squeezed by any type of pressure from the out side or can be massaged. It comes out passively. Such stagnation may lead to blockage of the duct more frequently. Such stagnation will lead to chronic infection of the gland from one of the bacteria from the mouth. This leads to formation of tumor on the palate. This is the probable explanation for the above question.
