UNSPSC 42152722: Orthodontic band drivers or pushers or setters

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a band driver, pusher or setter used during an orthodontic dental procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42152722 Orthodontic band drivers or pushers or setters is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity on record—Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department posting SS202620 in April 2026—involves the acquisition of iTero Lumina intraoral scanners from Align Technology, Inc., a digital imaging and diagnostic device unrelated to the manual or handheld orthodontic band application instruments the code nominally describes. The scanner purchase represents advanced 3D intraoral imaging technology for clinical and educational use, not band drivers, pushers, or setters used in orthodontic appliance placement or adjustment. State and local procurement under this code does not generate meaningful recent activity tied to its actual scope.

Valencia College issued the iTero Lumina procurement as a sole source RFQ with a due date of November 27, 2025, for four scanner units totaling $143,196.00 under Florida Administrative Code and Florida Statute 287.057. The posting occurred in a higher-education institutional context—a single Florida college's dental hygiene program—rather than across multiple jurisdictions or issuing bodies. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the equipment actually being procured suggests either miscoding of the opportunity or discontinuation of meaningful state and local purchasing activity in manual orthodontic band application tools. Firms tracking this code should verify current demand signals before committing resources to pursue opportunities under this classification.
