UNSPSC 42152600: Dental operatory specific supplies

In this classification, this class includes, supplies, used in dental based operatory procedures.

UNSPSC 42152600 Dental operatory specific supplies is a Class code under which state and local government procurement offices acquire specialized equipment and consumables for clinical dental operations, educational dental programs, and dental hygiene departments. The recent solicitations show acquisition of high-end diagnostic imaging equipment (intraoral 3D scanners), general dental and medical equipment pools, and ancillary monitoring systems for dental-adjacent operational settings. Issuing bodies include higher-education institutions with dental or allied health programs, such as Valencia College and Texas A&M University, as well as municipal governments purchasing equipment for health-related operations. The work spans both sole-source acquisitions of proprietary technologies and competitive procurement for general dental equipment and supplies through master order agreements.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Florida and Texas. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department posted a sole-source procurement (SS202620) on October 19, 2026 for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc, totaling $143,196.00, with a response date of November 27, 2025. Texas A&M University, Division of Finance Procurement Services issued an ITB (TAMHSC-26-0648) on August 20, 2026 for a master order pool of vendors to provide dental and medical equipment and supplies, with bids due September 3, 2026. A third opportunity from the City of Arlington, Texas (solicitation 270014, posted August 12, 2026, due September 10, 2026) for a cyanide flow analyzer appears unrelated to the code's nominal dental operatory scope and may represent a misclassification.
