However, there are also multiple minor salivary glands distributed throughout the mouth that perform the same function.<br \/>The main diseases affecting the salivary glands are:<\/p><p>a) Infections.<\/p><p>b) Inflammation.<\/p><p>c) Tumors.<\/p><p>d) Stones<\/p><p>Tumors can be benign or malignant, with most being benign. They usually appear after the age of 40. The most common symptoms are: appearance of a rapidly growing mass, pain, changes in facial movements (similar to the effects of facial paralysis), changes in the skin of the parotid region, and hearing changes. All of these masses are treated with surgery.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Las gl\u00e1ndulas salivales mayores que corresponden a las par\u00f3tidas (localizadas a cada lado de la cara delante de las orejas) y las gl\u00e1ndulas submaxilares (localizadas debajo de la mand\u00edbula) son las encargadas de producir saliva para la digesti\u00f3n de los alimentos.
