Kissing is totally a non-issue with Linguals. The brackets are so far behind your teeth that they are completely out of the way for all those sorts of activities. As far as someone seeing them. If you are cuddling on a couch and looking at each other very closely it is certainly possible, especially if you aren't eye to eye, just because high or low view angles into the mouth would make them visible.
