UNSPSC 42151625 Dental hygiene instruments is a Commodity code covering specialized clinical equipment and tools used in dental hygiene education and patient care. The recent activity under this code reflects procurement of advanced diagnostic and treatment devices rather than traditional hand instruments. State and local education bodies—particularly community colleges and university dental hygiene programs—are the primary buyers. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department has driven visible recent activity by pursuing sole-source acquisition of specialized intraoral scanning technology. The scope of work encompasses high-value digital imaging systems and related clinical instrumentation that support both educational training and clinical operations in dental hygiene settings.

Valencia College solicited the code's most recent opportunity through an RFP posted April 13, 2026 (with an effective due date of November 27, 2025) for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc., valued at $143,196.00, conducted under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057. The procurement was certified by Kellie Robertson, Assistant Director of Procurement at Valencia College, following a seven business day public posting process for sole source review. Florida shows the primary recent geographic concentration under this code, though the limited visibility in the record suggests the code sees modest state and local procurement volume overall. The sole-source structure and narrow institutional focus indicate that opportunities under this code typically reflect specialized equipment replacements or program-specific clinical technology upgrades rather than recurring competitive bidding cycles.
