Definition

“Saliva is a clean, tasteless, odorless slightly acidic viscous fluid, consisting of secretions from the parotid, sublingual, sub mandibular salivary glands and the mucous glands of oral cavity”

HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY BY A.K. JAIN 5th edition

Page 10: saliva - body's mirror

05/01/2023 10

Types of salivary glands • Salivary glands can be divided into Major and minor salivary

glands.• Major – There are their pair of major glands namely:

– Parotid.– Sub Mandibular– Sub lingual

• Minor – These are distributed in mucosa and sub mucosa of the oral cavity namely:– Labial and Buccal glands.– Glossopalatine glands.– Palatine glands.– Lingual glands.

DEVELOPMENT

• Similar pattern

• They originate from oral epithelial buds invading the underlying Mesenchyme.

• ECTODERMAL in parotid and minor salivary gland • ENDODERMAL in sub Mandibular and Sublingual

glands.

• PRIMORDIA – 6th week(sublingual glands- 7-8 weeks)The minor salivary glands - third month.

Divided by the facial nerve into a superficial lobe

and a deep lobe.

The superficial lobe Overlying the lateral surface of the masseter, Part of the gland lateral to the facial nerve.

The deep lobe Medial to the facial nerve Located between the mastoid process and the ramus

of the mandible

PAROTID DUCT

•Ductus parotideus; Stensen’s duct•5 cm in length•Anterior border of the gland•Runs anteriorly and downwards on the masseter b/w the upper and lower buccal branches of facial N.

Because of oblique course of duct through buccinator inflation of duct is prevented during blowing.

It opens into the vestibule of mouth opposite to the 2nd upper molar.

Fluid and electrolyte secretion is two step procedure.

• 1st step : Occures In acinar cells (primary saliva)

• 2nd step : Occurs In salivary ducts.

PROPERTIES OF SALIVA

• Daily secretory volume 500-7500ml• Consistency slightly cloudy and viscous• Saliva is acidic in nature usually.• Saliva is colourless opalscent fluid.• Specific gravity is 1.002 to 1.012• Saliva is usually hypotonic but approaches

isotonicity when flow rates are high.• It is rarely hypertonic.

• pH 5 to 8 & Mean pH 6.4– pH becomes alkaline with high flow rates.– Bacterial action may also alter the pH of saliva.

• Freezing point – 0.07-0.34°C• Osmotic pressure – ½ -3/4 of blood (1400milli osmol/L)• Flow rate – 0.02ml / min. – At rest

7ml / min. – In stimulated saliva.• Velocity – 0.8-8mm/min.

– Lowest velocity films occurred on facial surfaces of upper incisors – Highest velocity occurred on lingual surfaces of teeth.

VISCOSITY-‘SPINN BARKEIT PHENOMENA’

• Viscosity depends on their glycoprotein content as described by Gottschalk 1961.

• non-newtonian.• viscoelastic properties.• Ability to draw out a thread of saliva is typical of a viscoelastic

fluid and is known “Spinn Barkeit”.• The relative viscosity of the three main secretions after acetic

acid stimulation were found by Schneyer (1955).1. Parotid - 1.52. Submandibular - 3.43. Sublingual - 3.4

Pellicle and plaque deposition

• Both pellicle and plaque matrix contain protein predominantly derived from saliva.

• Pellicle formation is a physico-chemical process

• Plaque formation involves incorporation of salivary proteins

• It is generally accompanied by salivary gland hypofunction and

a severe reduction is the secretion of unstimulated (resting)

whole saliva.

Effect of artificial saliva contamination on adhesion of dental restorative materialsKisaki SHIMAZU et al

(Dental Materials Journal 2014; 33(4): 545–550)

• The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of artificial saliva contamination on three restorative materials, namely, a glass ionomer cement (GIC), a resin-modified GIC (RMGIC), and a composite resin (CR)

• The dentin bond strength for CR was significantly lower after artificial saliva contamination.

Page 173: saliva - body's mirror

• artificial saliva contamination did not affect the shear bond strengths of GIC and RMGIC or their degrees of microleakage.

Salivary Cells in Patients with Dental Amalgamand Composite Resin Material Restorations

Irena Kasacka, Joanna ŁapińskaPolish J. of Environ. Stud. Vol. 19, No. 6 (2010), 1223-1227

• The aim of our study was to compare the composition and morphological activity of sali-vary cells in patients with amalgam and composite material restorations.

• Significant morphological changes were observed in the salivary smears in patients with amalgam restorations

• There was a slight difference in salivary cells in patients with composite restorations in compar-ison to the control group.

Effect of salivary contamination at different steps of the bonding process on the micro leakage around Class V restorationsCristiane Becher Rosa et al.

• This study aimed to investigate the influence of the moment of salivary contamination during the bonding procedure (before or after acid conditioning) on the micro leakage around composite resin restorations

• salivary contamination after acid etching increases the micro leakage around composite resin restorations, especially at dentin margins.

Correlation between Dental Caries and SalivaryAlbumin in Adult Indian Population– An In Vivo Study

• To analyze the relationship between dental caries, albumin in young adults between the age group of 20 to 30 years

• there is an increase in the levels of caries with decrease in the levels of albumin. Serum albumin levels were also found to be decreased in caries prone individuals, hence showing a significant correlation between serum and salivary albumin levels.
