Abstract:
Sialoliths are one of the most commonly encountered anomalies of the salivary glands in routine practice. Submandibular glands are more frequently affected due to certain anatomic and physiologic reasons. Usually may not exhibit clinical signs and symptoms and can be discovered as an incidental finding on dental radiographs. Otherwise they may present with symptoms such as submandibular pain of swelling. Swelling during meal times is pathognomic of this disease. We present case of sialolithiasis of the submandibular gland with ten years follow up managed via the intraoral surgical approach.
