The oral cavity is a moist environment; a film of fluid called saliva constantly coats its inner surfaces and occupies the space between the lining oral mucosa and the teeth. Salivary function provides host protection, assists in the initiation of food and fluid intake, and enables communication through speech. In humans there are three pairs of major salivary glands - the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual - located out side oral cavity, encapsulated, and with extended duct system to discharge their secretions. There are also a multitude of smaller minor salivary glands - the labial, lingual, palatal, glossopalatine, and retromolar - located just below and within the mucous membranes, unencapsulated, and with short duct systems.

Clinical Guide to Principles of Fiber-Reinforced Composites in Dentistry
<p>Traditional dental materials such as metals and ceramics have a number of disadvantages such as cost and the significant damage caused in grinding to make space for such reconstructions. Fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) are a novel group of dental materials characterized by fibrous fillers that are being increasingly used in place of traditional prosthodontic materials. They allow fabrication of minimally invasive, lightweight, durable and biocompatible restorations. This book will provide clinicians and students with theoretical and clinical guidelines to use the FRCs for dental applications.</p> <p>The book begins with an introduction to the fundamentals of FRCs in dentistry. Further chapters cover the treatment possibilities, fabrication and application procedures of FRCs, followed by information on care and maintenance.</p>
