Answer:

Teeth break down and grind food to make food smaller and easier to digest. They help prepare the food for the rest of the digestive system.

Salivary glands produce saliva. Saliva helps by moistening food and making it easier to swallow. It also contains an enzyme called amylase that helps break down some carbohydrates.
