Yes, studies show you can contract HPV from having oral sex with someone who already has the infection. If you do contract the infection, it is more likely to stay in the mouth or throat and not pass to any other part of your body. In this respect, you can only contract HPV in your genital area through having sexual intercourse with a partner who is already infected.
It should be noted though that men are only carriers of the virus and will not exhibit any signs of having it. On the other hand, women may show signs of having it and may even contract cervical cancer which could lead to death if left untreated.  By having regular smear tests, a doctor or nurse will be able to see if there are any abnormal changes in the cells of a woman's cervix.
Those worried about contracting the virus should make sure to see a dentist regularly as they would be able to spot the main symptoms in the mouth or throat. Although, if you do notice any changes in your mouth between check-up appointments, make an appointment with either your dentist or doctor. Some tell-tale signs may include pain or tenderness in the mouth or throat, a sore that will not heal or that is bleeding, any lumps or even if the position of your teeth seems to have moved.

There are 100 strains of HPV out of which 30-40 are STD. The HPV is transmitted by skin to skin contact. The STD HPV is transmitted skin to skin contact from infected person when he rubs to the skin of partner. Main routes of its transmission are vaginal and anal sex. Transmission through oral sex is rare but possible.

It can be possible but its very rare! And as long as you don't have any warts present, you can have oral sex but if you do have warts present then avoid oral sex until your done treating your warts

Jessi4ever. You seem to be correcting someone but then you are wrong yourself. Men CAN get HPV. And I won't put any details here but if you google it, you would see the evidence. And you put hiv instead of hpv in some of your wording,

There is a risk having Oral sex with an infected partner. For example performing Oral sex on a man or a woman, infected fluid could get into the mouth and virus could then get into the bloodstream if you have bleeding gums, ulsers or some kind of sore in your mouth.

Once again rayoflight I have to correct you again. Your husband will not get hiv from oral sex. I have had it for years and if a guy could get it, then he would have gotten it a long time ago. Hpv is a virus in the cervix. Its caused by sex unprotected. A man cannot get hiv because he don't have a cervix. Skin contact will not give it to him or anyone else. If you need more info on hiv, please click on my icon and ask. I can tell you pretty much anything you need to know about the virus. And then you can get it double checked by your doctor.

This is not true because guys can give it to girls, they just pass it along. So they can get it from oral sex.

A man can definitely get hpv. Just because he doesn't have a cervix doesn't mean he can't get it, it just means it doesn't affect him. I also have hpv. I got it from my boyfriend. Males are carriers; they pass it on. If he has unprotected sex with a woman who has it, then there's a strong chance he has it, but there is no way for him to find out. And yes you can get it hpv orally, it's rare, but possible. Then again it affects the cervix... Let's just say you can't reach that tongue length.
