"Can oral sex get you pregnant" can be absolutely denied, because if a couple practises proper oral sex (also called fellatio), the penis does not penetrate the vagina.
Therefore, no sperms can enter the vagina which could fertilize the egg cell.
In order to answer the question "Can oral sex get you pregnant", the following explanations about oral sex might be useful in order to understand, why it is impossible to get pregnant when having oral sex.
When having oral sex, the partners caress the genitals of each other with lips, mouth and tongue. These stimulations can lead to one or both partners having an orgasm. If the man reaches his climax, ejaculates in the mouth of the woman and his sperms are swallowed by her, there is no risk for the woman to get pregnant at all! A lot of couples do use oral sex as a replacement for proper sexual intercourse, as the caresses with the partner's mouth and lips as well as this way of reaching the climax can be just as satisfying for the couple as having "normal" sex.
Therefore, oral sex is especially advantageous for couples who cannot or do not want to use any contraceptives and who do not want to do without sex during her fertile days but who do not want to take the risk of an unwanted pregnancy either.
It is also practised in certain religous communities where it is important that the women have to maintain their virginity and therefore are not allowed to have proper sexual intercourse which would destroy their hymen.
A lot of couples do also practise oral sex as a foreplay before the actual sexual intercourse.
