UNSPSC 42152418 Dental gypsum products is a Commodity code that covers plaster, stone, and investment materials used in dental laboratory and clinical settings for model fabrication, crown and bridge work, and casting applications. State and local governments procure dental gypsum products primarily through school districts operating dental hygiene and dental assisting programs, county health departments maintaining dental clinics, and state health agencies supplying correctional facilities and public health dental services. The products themselves range from model plaster and die stone to high-strength gypsum investment materials used in prosthodontic and restorative procedures, and are typically sourced through distributor catalogs, cooperative purchasing agreements, or direct vendor contracts negotiated at the district or county level.

The recent state and local contract opportunities block for this code contains no records. No recent RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB activity is visible in the dataset, suggesting either limited procurement velocity under this specific commodity classification or that state and local buyers in this space route dental laboratory supply contracts through general supplies codes, health-care materials codes, or cooperative purchasing vehicles not tagged to this code. Firms pursuing dental gypsum sales to state and local education and public health buyers should verify how target jurisdictions classify these products in their procurement systems and monitor both broad materials and health-care supply solicitations where dental lab consumables commonly appear.
