The present disclosure relates to a film for oral hemostasis and wound protection and, more particularly, to a film for oral hemostasis and wound protection which, being attached to a wound area in an oral cavity, delays or prevents microbleeds and controls medicinal component release. The film provided by the present disclosure is capable of including a polyol, an alcohol and a biodegradable polymer in the state of partial swelling, thereby locally absorbing blood or pus or arresting hemorrhage. Moreover, due to its high elongation ratio, the film provided by the present disclosure is capable of maintaining its adhesive force even when having blood, saliva and pus absorbed inside an oral cavity and conveniently deforming according to the shape of a seriously corrugated local area, which causes only slight foreign body sensation even after a long period of time of attachment on to the local area. In addition, the film provided by the present disclosure includes a disintegrant which is dissolved and released by reacting with blood to form microchannels that act as paths for drug release and is capable of adjusting the amount and the size of the microchannels, thereby controlling the amount of drug release. The present disclosure doesn't require a patient to detach the film attached inside an oral cavity by hand because the adhesive layer and the backing layer dissolve entirely over time.
