ABSTRACT:
A dental prosthesis which has the whole or part of its surface which is in contact with the mucous membrane of the mouth coated with a soft, hydrophilic polyurethane is provided. The polyurethane coating has a thickness of from 0.1 to 3.00 mm when hydrated. The polyurethane is applied to the prosthesis from a non-aqueous solvent in an anhydrous state and is subsequently hydrated by soaking in water. The polyurethane is a reaction product of a mixture of polyether polyols and a di-isocyanate using an alkenediol as a chain extender. The polyurethane contains from 5 to 40% water when hydrated.
