UNSPSC 42152805 Periodontium control instruments is a Commodity code under which state and local jurisdictions procure dental hygiene and periodontal equipment and supplies for clinical and educational use. The scope encompasses intraoral scanning devices, digital imaging technology, and specialized instruments used in periodontal assessment and treatment planning. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department exemplifies the kinds of educational institutions buying under this code—the college pursued a sole source procurement for 4 iTero Lumina Scanners, advanced 3D intraoral imaging devices, under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057. Community colleges, technical colleges, and health sciences programs represent the primary issuing bodies, though dental clinics and public health departments also buy equipment in this category.

Geographic activity centers on Florida, where Valencia College's procurement of $143,196.00 for the iTero Lumina Scanners was posted April 13, 2026 with a due date of November 27, 2025. The procurement followed a seven business day public posting process for the sole source justification, with certification by Kellie Robertson, Assistant Director of Procurement at Valencia College. The notice specified integration with the school's existing dental hygiene infrastructure, signaling that institutional buyers in this space are upgrading or standardizing clinical technology across multiple units. Recent opportunities in this code show narrow, institution-specific acquisitions rather than broad competitive bidding across multiple jurisdictions.
