Here, an unusual case of sialolith in submandibular duct is reported which progressed into a giant sialolith in six months’ time is reported.

A large stone was palpable intraorally within the Wharton’s duct and intra-operatively, an elongated giant sialolith of 50 mm length was found which is the second largest to be published till date.
