*Sympathetic
*Sympathetic
**Vasoconstriction occurs
**Flow of saliva is decreased
*Parasympathetic (most important)
*Parasympathetic (most important)
**Travel from the brainstem by the facial ([[Nervous System - CNS - Anatomy & Physiology#Innervation - Cranial Nerves|CN VII]]) and glossopharyngeal ([[Nervous System - CNS - Anatomy & Physiology#Innervation - Cranial Nerves|CN XI]]) then into
branches of the trigeminal nerve ([[Nervous System - CNS - Anatomy & Physiology#Innervation - Cranial Nerves|CN V]])
**Flow of salivary fluid increases
**Vasodilation occurs
*Main nerves are occulomotor ([[Nervous System - CNS - Anatomy & Physiology#Innervation - Cranial Nerves|CN III]]), facial ([[Nervous System - CNS - Anatomy & Physiology#Innervation - Cranial Nerves|CN VII]]), glossopharyngeal ([[Nervous System - CNS - Anatomy & Physiology#Innervation - Cranial Nerves|CN IX]]) and vagus ([[Nervous System - CNS - Anatomy & Physiology#Innervation - Cranial Nerves|CN X]])
