Is there a such thing as a kissing disease?

One of the most commonly known one is Mononucleosis (Mono). Streptococcus can also be spread via kissing, but this is a bacteria, so it can cause a plethora of different diseases, most commonly strep throat and gum disease. These aforementioned diseases are the ones spread through saliva that is exchanged via kissing. There's also mouth sores. HSV 1 (Oral Herpes [Cold Sores]) can be spread this way if the sore is leaking fluid. I see that you put this in the 'HIV and AIDS' category. HIV/AIDS are blood borne diseases and while they have been found in saliva, it's virtually impossible for it to be spread through the saliva route. Same with Hepatitis B.
