Journal Title: International Journal of Scientific Research and Management - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Sialoliths are calcified structures that develop within the salivary ductal system (1) . Sialolithiasis is the most common disease of salivary glands (2) . Sialolithiasis accounts for 30% of salivary diseases (1) . It is estimated t hat it affects 12 in 1000 adult population. Males are twice as much affected as females (2) , especially in cases of parotid gland lithiasis (1) . Sialolithiasis usually occurs between the ages of 30 - 60 years, though cases of teenagers have also been reported (3) . Children are rarely affected (1) .
