Summary

The parotid gland receives sensory and autonomic innervation. Sensory innervation is supplied by the auriculotemporal nerve (gland) and the great auricular nerve (fascia). The parasympathetic innervation to the parotid gland begins with the glossopharyngeal nerve. This nerve synapses with the otic ganglion. The auriculotemporal nerve then carries parasympathetic fibers from the otic ganglion to the parotid gland. Parasympathetic stimulation increase saliva production. Sympathetic innervation from the superior cervical ganglion, part of the paravertebral chain
