Hapatitis B (HBV) is found in saliva. HBV can be transmitted by saliva through oral sex and bite injuries. It is not transmitted through dry kissing on the lips. It may be possible to contract HBV through deep kissing, however, no infections have been definitively documented after exposure to infected saliva. The risk increases if one partner wears orthodontic braces or has open cuts or sores in the mouth.

yes, you actually can transmit hepatitis. but, to transmit it, you need about a few gallons of saliva to actually transmit it. so, unless you just like drool gallons of saliva your ok. :)
