Monoductal
What are the 3 food related functions of saliva?
Prep for digestion, digestion, taste
What is a danger in saliva- animals?
Snakes, Mosquitos
What are the three glands that produce saliva?
Sublingual gland, Submandibular gland, Parotid gland
___ and ___ flow rates are in the range of 0.5 - 0.7 ml/min when unstimulated and 0.5-2.0 ml/min when stimulated, although both flow rates have wide normal ranges.
Submand and subling
_______ serous salivary glands which reside within the moats surrounding the circumvallate papilla in the posterior one-third of the tongue, anterior to the terminal sulcus.
The Von Ebner's glands (Serous-produces water)
___ is a composite exocrine secretion from the major and minor salivary glands of the mouth.
Whole saliva
Who has higher flow rates? people in hot or cold climates?
cold
____ these glands have a highly branched duct system. Secretory portions empty into an elaborate branched duct system, which, in turn, drain into larger ducts.
compound glands
What is stimulated saliva purpose?
digestion and taste as well as protect, buffer, and confer immune response and maintain tooth integrity.
____ secrete their products via ducts onto the apical (or epithelial) surface.
exocrine glands
____ are special types of cells, which are specialized to produce products to be used elsewhere in the body.
glands
What is saliva produced by?
glandular epithelium
Explain stimulated saliva production
it is stimulated, simply
____ push their secretions through a main duct into the mouth
major glands
______ empty their secretions directly into the mouth (mono-ductal
minor glands
What is an example of a simple gland?
mono ductal glands
___flow rates for unstimulated or restng flow are 0.3-0.5 ml/min and 0.5 - 3.0 for stimulated flow.
parotid
____ is mostly 99.5% water and the functional components make up only a fraction of the volume. The protein-rich secretions of the salivary glands contain a milieu of antibacterial enzymes, immunoglobulins, lubricants, inorganic elements, and usually contains incredibly high numbers of bacteria. Ironically, it is also the tooth's first defense against cariogenic pathogens.
saliva
____ glands of this type have an unbranched duct into which the cells secrete. Each secretory portion empties separately on an epithelial surface.
simple glands
What is the one communication function of saliva?
speech
____ is a biological consequence of the oral ecology. Salivary & GCF glycoproteins bind to the oral mucosa and the dentition
tooth pellicle
____ a resting saliva. It is the saliva that is produced while sleeping, reading, bathing, etc. It is very protective of the dentition and its supporting structures
unstimulated saliva
