Excuse me?: If i understand your question, you are concerned about having touched the tip of your tongue with your fork when eating? No, this does not seem dangerous to me -- but it might to someone with high anxiety and health-related fears. Hoping you talk with your therapist about this -- might be helpful for you. Take care.

Not to worry: A fork touching the tip of your tongue will have no serious consequences.
