Submandibular gland surgery involves taking out the entire submandibular gland and, sometimes, some of the surrounding tissue or bone. The submandibular gland is the second largest salivary gland in your body. It is about the size of a plum that is located below the lower jawbone (mandible).
Submandibular gland surgery is usually performed to treat an infection that happens if the tubes that drain saliva become blocked.
This surgery is also a type of salivary gland surgery. Your doctor may recommend you undergo this surgery if you have a tumor or cancer on your submandibular gland and they believe that they can remove cancer or tumor completely.
The area around your jaw may be sore for a few days after the surgery. There may also be swelling and bruising. You may be able to return to work 1 week after recovering from the surgery. However, your doctor may advise you to avoid any strenuous activities, such as heavy lifting and vigorous exercise, for two weeks.
Submandibular gland surgery is a generally safe procedure with a high success rate. Still, there are some risks and side effects that you need to be aware of. These include:
Bleeding
Infection
Pain
Nerve damage
Dry mouth.
Make sure to talk to your doctor about any concerns you may have.
