UNSPSC 42152308: Dental ultraviolet detectors

UNSPSC 42152308 Dental ultraviolet detectors is a Commodity code that covers specialized intraoral scanning and imaging equipment used in dental education and clinical practice. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through educational institutions, particularly community colleges and university dental hygiene and dental medicine programs seeking advanced diagnostic imaging technology for student training and patient care. The scope of work encompasses high-precision 3D digital scanning devices capable of capturing detailed images of teeth, gums, and oral structures — technology that has become integral to modern dental curricula and clinical workflows.

Recent activity under this code remains limited, with a single documented opportunity: Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department, posted a sole source procurement (SS202620) in April 2026 for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc., totaling $143,196.00, with a response deadline of November 27, 2025. The procurement was conducted under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057, following Florida's seven business day public posting process for sole source justifications. This represents the only recent state or local opportunity coded to this category; current activity is concentrated in Florida and driven by dental education providers rather than by state health departments or municipal dental clinics.
