Oral ointment contains adhesive agents with high molecular weight soluble in water as one of the base materials, providing a special property of adhesion to oral mucosa. On application, a strange suction-like sensation may be felt on the mucosa, inhibiting tongue movement and opening of the mouth and causing discomfort and anxiety. Questionnaires asking patients their opinions about oral ointment revealed a small number of patients with anxiety. A survey on the method of application of oral ointment, timing of application and degree of cleanliness of the oral cavity indicated inadequacy in the method of application in some patients."Instructions for Application"and"Precautions"printed on the packing insert for oral ointment were found to be rather vague and unsatisfactory in many aspects.
