Which ducts are associated with the sublingual gland?

The ducts associated with the sublingual gland are known as the Ducts of Rivinus. These small ducts are responsible for draining the saliva produced by the sublingual glands into the mouth. The sublingual glands are the smallest of the major salivary glands and are located beneath the floor of the mouth, adjacent to the midline. The Ducts of Rivinus typically consist of several openings that allow saliva to be released into the sublingual caruncle area, which is located at the base of the tongue.

The other ducts mentioned in the options are associated with different salivary glands. Wharton's ducts, for instance, are associated with the submandibular glands and drain saliva into the oral cavity at the sublingual caruncle. Stensen’s ducts are associated with the parotid glands, draining saliva into the upper buccal vestibule. Bartholin's ducts are also associated with the sublingual glands but specifically refer to the larger duct leading from the major sublingual gland. However, when broadly discussing the smaller, multiple ducts specifically of the sublingual gland, the Ducts of Rivinus are the most accurate answer.
