Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The parasympathetic nervous system, especially the facial and glossopharyngeal nerves, primarily control and increase salivation. The sympathetic nervous system can decrease salivation. The enteric and submucosal nervous systems are primarily involved in regulating gastrointestinal functions rather than salivation specifically.
