    Multiple issues orphan February 2009 notability September 2010 Salivary diagnostics or Salivaomics is a Procedure term procedure for testing and maintaining the data for Diagnosis diagnostic purposes . Saliva based hand held sensors are used to detect and measure proteins and nucleic acids that are present in saliva for diagnosis. Salivary diagnostic technology is showing promise in the detection and monitoring malignancies at early stage and other various health concerns. The advantages of salivary diagnostics includes ease of collection, elimination of fear of needles, inexpensive testing and reduce risk of disease transmission between healthcare workers and patients. In addition, salivary diagnostic is fast, highly sensitive and specific, portable, user friendly and can screen for multiple agents simultaneously contributing in determining the scope of toxin exposure, thereby providing a quicker fight and diagnosis in the event of pandemic , epidemic and bioterrorism .

They lie anterior to the submandibular gland under the tongue , beneath the mucous membrane of the floor of the mouth. They are drained by 8 20 excretory ducts called the ducts of Rivinus. The largest ball, the sublingual duct of Bartholin joins the submandibular duct to drain through the sublingual caruncle . The sublingual gland consists mostly of Mucous acini capped with serous demilunes and is therefore categorized as a mucous gland. Most of the remaining small sublingual ducts open separately into the mouth on an elevated crest of mucous membrane, the plica fimbriata , formed by the gland and located on either side of the frenulum linguae .

Parasympathetic efferent fibers of the facial nerve preganglionic fibers arise according to some authors from the small cells of the facial nucleus , or according to others from a special nucleus of cells scattered in the reticular formation, dorso medial to the facial nucleus . This is sometimes called the superior salivatory nucleus . These preganglionic fibers are distributed partly via the chorda tympani and lingual nerves to the submandibular ganglion , thence by postganglionic vasodilator fibers to the submandibular gland and sublingual gland . Some of the preganglionic fibers travel along the greater petrosal nerve through the pterygoid canal where they join the postsynaptic fibers of the deep petrosal nerve and are called the Vidian nerve and synapse in the pterygopalatine ganglion , whereupon the postganglionic , postsynaptic , efferent fibers travel to innervate the lacrimal gland and the mucosal glands of the nose, palate, and pharynx.
