    Author: Soares LP, Gaião de Melo L, Pozza DH, Pinheiro AL, Gerhardt de Oliveira M.
    Journal: J Contemp Dent Pract; 2005 Aug 15; 6(3):127-33. PubMed ID: 16127481.
    Abstract:
    Salivary dysfunction may be due to systemic diseases and medications. The development of sialoliths is a multifactorial event in which disturbances in secretion, microliths, and bacteria may play a major role. A case of sialolith in the submandibular gland of a 58-year old woman, with a medical history of renal failure end kidney transplant, is reported.
