UNSPSC 42152446 Dental cavities lining or thinner materials or sets is a Commodity code that covers specialized dental restorative materials — specifically liners, bases, and thin application systems used in cavity preparation and filling procedures. State and local governments procure these materials primarily through public health departments, community health centers, school-based dental clinics, and corrections facilities that operate dental services for inmates or public patients. The materials themselves are narrow-use consumables: thin protective coatings applied under fillings to insulate tooth pulp, calcium hydroxide bases, glass ionomer liners, and pre-packaged material sets designed for chairside dental procedures. Issuing bodies include state health agencies managing public dental programs, county health departments operating community clinics, municipal health services, and state corrections departments maintaining inmate dental facilities.

The source provides no recent state or local contract opportunities tagged to this code, making current market activity unclear. Without posted RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, or ITBs identifying jurisdictions, response dates, or scope details, the geographic footprint and near-term procurement patterns cannot be characterized from recent solicitations. Firms evaluating this code should cross-reference procurement portals for individual state health departments and large county health systems, where dental supply procurements are often consolidated into broader medical-supply or pharmacy contracts rather than issued as standalone dental-material RFQs.
