It is possible to transmit HIV orally by snogging (kissing with tongues and sharing oral liquid).

To transmit HIV there needs to be a cross contamination of blood or semen from both people.

If one person has had dental treatment (removal of a tooth, cut gums etc) and therefore has an open wound (and possible blood present) and the other person also has bleeding gums, oral problems, etc... then obviously transmission of HIV is possible (but not guaranteed).

However, this would then lead to a question I would personally have, which would be:

"Why would you/do you want to snog someone with bleeding gums, whether you have HIV or not?"

Everyone can suffer from bleeding gums occasionally, but would you seriously choose that moment to snog someone? I dont think I would personally.

So to round up the answer, yes it is possible.

Casual kissing will not transmit the HIV virus. Saliva doesn't transmit the virus. Unless there is blood in the mouth, it would be unusual to get HIV infection from kissing.
