Brief Answer:
Chances of HIV is nil.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for query. Welcome to health care magic.
I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query. I have gone through the details.

The chances of transmission of HIV by unprotected oral sex is almost nil unless there are bleeding wounds in both in the area of contact. It is very unlikely as you would have noticed it.
The chances of other STDs is possible if she is infected.

You can get tested for STDs panel tests as a routine and baseline .
The partner does not have any infection as given in the description. So you can allay fears.

You can get back for any clarification.
Thank you
