Most kisses are absolutely harmless and Not all STI’s can transfer from a kiss or smooch
However there are few that should be kept in mind such as herpes, syphilis, and gonorrhea.
Particularly if there is contact with infected sores or lesions in the mouth or on the lips and if there is broken skin or oral mucosal abrasions on the non infected individual.
It is important to practice safe sex and When in doubt get tested regularly if you are sexually active to prevent the spread of STIs.
Getting into more details is beyond the scope of this conversation so No need to panic unless you notice a lesion or something that worries you .
There are specific tests and treatments
Just relax
Hope this helps
