Does sperm live in the mouth for more than one day , during this day i've drunk water ate and brushed my teeth after this day i used my saliva as lubricant, would that cause pregnancy?

In the scenario you described, pregnancy is not in the cards. It appears that you and your partner are moving in the direction of actual intercourse. It would be wise to learn about appropriate contraception. Here is some information regarding how one becomes pregnant: https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn/pregnancy

No, sperm does not live autonomously. Pregnancy is not possible in above circumstances. Contraception remains otherwise key in avoiding undesired pregnancy and associated anxiety and when intercourse is likely to occur.

Sperm dies outside of the vagina and on surfaces in 3-5 minutes. In your mouth the acidity of the saliva kills the sperm in minutes. The sperm has to enter the vagina during ejaculation to cause pregnancy. Learn how to practice safe sex to avoid pregnancy.
