How long can sperm survive inside of a mouth?

Sperm in a test tube is still moving between 8 and 24 hours after a sample has been given. Sperm held in the mouth will not be damaged as long as it's protected in its gel-like form. "If you check sperm in the vagina two hours after intercourse, then most of them are immobilized," I would think could only live a short time.
