Kissing. under part of my tongue ripped by brace(lots of blood)

Hello.. First I know kissing never transmit HIV. But it's the first experience that I've got.

I deep kissed with gay man. But, during kissing, under part of my tongue ripped by partner's brace.
I stopped kiss right that moment, but there was lots of blood in my mouth. big cut!!

I know saliva has an enzyme and protein that inhibit HIV. But in this case, So big cut happened during kissing.
and IF, the blood present in partner's mouth, am I infected???

I am really afraid because I have never experienced like this situation.

Am I need test?

Hello Lizzie. Can I ask u one thing?

I saw the post about kissing and saw your comment.
'you would both basically need huge, fresh, gaping wounds that were profusely bleeding in your mouths for transmission to potentially occur.'

I got a big fresh cut during deep kissing cuz my tongue was ripped by partner's brace. But stop kissing right that moment. My partner maybe had tiny cut on his lips.

Teak said, No risk, but I am worried now again. Is it from my OCD? or has real risk?

sorry for asking..

No you don't need testing. You aren't going to be infected  by kissing, blood or no blood.
