I Get Dirty Brown Color Saliva Inside My Mouth

Hello Doctors, Hope you guys are fine...im having a problem since 3 years and never bothered to go to a doctor. The problem is that when i sleep, a dirty brown color saliva arises/fill inside my mouth and i usually get up in the middle of my sleep to spit out those amount of saliva. After sometimes it occurs and thus i do the same procedure unless i get the proper sleep. The saliva looks brown in color. Please suggest me. Regards.

Hi, there may be some bleeding from the gums when you sleep. Since the blood fills in the mouth and gets mixed with saliva, saliva looks brown in colour as we all know blood turns brown after some time. Please do go to a dentist and get a complete oral examination done to know the exact cause and take the treatment needed. take care!
