In industry, citric acid can be used to make good"natural" cleaners, though some may still contain chemicals that are not exactly natural. So I Would Say Its Dangerous but good in certain ways.

If you mean straight, I personally wouldn't; it's stronger than most carboxylic acids and can cause skin irritation in high concentrations, which I don't think I want happening inside my mouth.

In dilute form, then yes, it's perfectly safe and is in fact one of the principal components in lemon juice.
