Salivary Gland Specialists
Salivary Gland Issues
Salivary Glands are a group of glands in the head and neck. There are three major pairs of glands and in addition to these, there are hundreds of tiny salivary glands scattered throughout the head and neck area.
They can be prone to a range of disease and conditions such as cysts, stones, tumors both malignant and benign and viral infection causing swelling and pain especially when eating.
Our specialists are highly experienced in the diagnosis and treatment of salivary gland diseases. While a conservative and least invasive approach to treatment can resolve salivary gland problems sometimes surgical intervention is required. If surgery is needed our specialists use the latest advanced surgical techniques to provide the best outcome for the patient.
