UNSPSC 42152465: Dental lubricants

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that facilitate the application of a dental appliance or prosthetic and tries to ensure long product lifespan and optimal performance. US FDA regulates Dental lubricants under 21 CFR 880.6375 and under FDA product code ONK. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 300640.

UNSPSC 42152465 Dental lubricants is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it does not reflect lubricant purchases. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department posted a sole source procurement (SS202620) for four iTero Lumina intraoral scanners from Align Technology, Inc., a $143,196.00 acquisition of advanced 3D imaging devices for dental and orthodontic clinical and educational use. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (dental lubricants) and the actual solicitation (dental imaging equipment) indicates this code shows little relevant recent activity for lubricant procurement at the state and local level. The single recorded opportunity reflects institutional equipment acquisition rather than consumable supplies typical of the lubricant commodity code.

The sourcing was limited to a Florida higher-education institution and conducted under sole source authority (Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057) with a seven business day public posting window. No other recent state or local opportunities under this code are present in the source. The geographic and issuing-body signals are insufficient to characterize broader procurement patterns, and the equipment-focused nature of the Valencia College notice suggests this code may not be actively used by state and local governments for dental lubricant sourcing.
