Sublingual gland surgery is a procedure to take out your sublingual gland(s). The sublingual glands are small salivary glands. They are on the floor of your mouth, on either side of your tongue. This pamphlet explains what will happen before and after surgery, care at home, how to care for your incision, and follow-up care.
