The present invention provides oral compositions. The compositions may be provided in a solid form, such as a film. The compositions can comprise one or more film forming polymers, one or more bioadhesive agents, one or more active agents, one or more polymeric solvents, and an aqueous solvent, with the proviso that the composition does not comprise benzocaine. The active agent(s) preferably are effective for a range of effects. The oral composition can be a solid or semi-solid composition up to a temperature of at least 40°C. Methods of providing such an oral compositions and methods of applying them to an oral or buccal cavity are also provided herein.
The present invention provides an oral care composition comprising a film-forming polymer which is water insoluble and which exhibits pH independent swelling;a first adhesive polymer which is water soluble; a second adhesive polymer which is water insoluble and exhibits pH dependent swelling; and an oral care active agent. The oral care composition can be provided as a single-layer adhesive film, which does not require any further layers such as a support or barrier layer. Also provided is a process for the manufacture of the oral care composition and a method of administering an oral care active to a tooth orteeth using such an oral care composition.
