UNSPSC 42152503: Dental dam supplies

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is a thin square of latex that can be used to prevent contamination during dental procedures. US FDA regulates Dental dam supplies under 21 CFR 872.63 and under FDA product code EEF. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 401699.

UNSPSC 42152503 Dental dam supplies is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement practice encompasses specialized dental imaging and scanning equipment rather than consumable dam materials. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department solicited a sole-source procurement under this code for four iTero Lumina Scanners — advanced 3D intraoral imaging devices used for digital tooth and gum representation in clinical and educational settings. The issuing body is a state college in Florida's public higher-education system, using the college's institutional procurement authority under Florida Administrative Code and Statute 287.057.

The recent activity tracked under this code shows limited geographic spread, with the single documented opportunity originating from Valencia College in Florida as of April 2026 (though the notice was posted November 18, 2025, with a due date of November 27, 2025). The sole-source acquisition of $143,196.00 for four scanner units suggests narrow, institution-specific demand rather than broad-based state or local government purchasing. No competitive alternatives are named, and no set-aside designations appear in the documentation. The code's application here signals a mismatch between its nominal scope (dental dam supplies, consumable) and actual procurement activity (capital equipment for dental education), indicating that this code sees minimal relevant recent state and local activity in its intended commodity family.
