blood in saliva may be due to from teeth origin/gum bleeding/ buccal mucosa erosion. if u have tooth problem than there is posibility of fresh bleeding from teeth after brushing and pain in tooth may or may not be present. u should check all teeth for that or visit to dentist for that. in some vitamin B complex (B2) and vit.C deficiency there is chance of gum bleeding. mouth ulcer occur frequently in that. u can take multi vitamine/B complex tablets for that,,,,,
