There are 3 pairs of major salivary glands:
1. Parotid, the largest, is at the back of the jaw by the ear
2. Sublingual, under the tongue
3. Submandibular (also called submaxillary) in the lower jaw.
Cats, unlike dogs, only have three major salivary glands. They are the parotid, sublingual and submandibular glands. Dogs have four pairs of major salivary glands and people have three.
The large pairs of salivary glands are the parotid glands, submandibular glands, and sublingual glands. These glands produce saliva to aid in the digestion of food by moistening and breaking down food particles.
Your salivary glands are located in and around your mouth. The major salivary glands are the parotid glands, submandibular glands, and sublingual glands, which produce saliva to help with digestion and protection of the mouth.
Humans have paired salivary glands.
The salivary glands are located in the mouth and secrete saliva into the oral cavity. There are three pairs of major salivary glands: the parotid glands, submandibular glands, and sublingual glands.
There are around 600-1000 minor salivary glands located throughout the lining of the oral cavity. They are smaller in size and less numerous than the major salivary glands (such as the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands).

Humans have three pairs of major salivary glands: the parotid glands, submandibular glands, and sublingual glands. Additionally, there are numerous minor salivary glands located throughout the mouth and throat.
There are 3 pairs of major salivary glands: - Parotid, the largest, is at the back of the jaw by the ear - Sublingual, under the tongue - Submandibular (also called submaxillary) in the lower jaw. There are also many minor salivary glands. These are tiny glands in the lips and in the linings of the mouth and throat. Salivary glands produce saliva which keeps the mouth moist and starts the digestion of food. It also protects against tooth decay.
