UNSPSC 42152806: Periodontal tissue dissectors

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as an in a periodontal procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Periodontal tissue dissectors under 21 CFR 872.4565 and under FDA product code EGN. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42152806 Periodontal tissue dissectors is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code involve iTero Lumina intraoral scanning systems for dental education, a master order for general dental and medical equipment and supplies, and a cyanide flow analyzer for wastewater treatment — none of which are periodontal tissue dissectors or related hand instruments. The code appears to be a tagging mismatch rather than a signal of active procurement demand in the dissector category itself.

The issuing bodies span higher education (Valencia College in Florida and Texas A&M University's health science center) and municipal infrastructure (City of Arlington, Texas). The only opportunity with a concrete response date that aligns broadly with dental procurement is the Texas A&M ITB for a master order pool of dental and medical equipment and supplies, due September 3, 2026, which establishes standing vendor agreements for on-demand supply. Valencia College posted a sole-source RFP for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc., valued at $143,196.00, originally due November 27, 2025. The geographic footprint touches Florida and Texas. Given the absence of recent opportunities actually seeking periodontal tissue dissectors and the lack of misalignment between the code name and posted solicitations, practitioners should verify the code against current procurement notices before investing pursuit resources.
