calm down!!!let it b clear that hiv is not found in saliva.the chances from contamination with toothbrush is weather he bleeds when he uses it.but in ur case and even if he bleeded the virus would have died in 2 minutes in air.dont worry and dont put too much thought into it!!good luck not you can only get hiv if his blood even touches a small part of a open cut ar scratch
