UNSPSC 42152808: Periodontal curettes

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a curette used during a periodontal procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Periodontal curettes under 21 CFR 872.4565 and under FDA product code EKE. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901849.

UNSPSC 42152808 Periodontal curettes is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement covers specialized dental diagnostic and imaging equipment rather than hand instruments. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department solicited 4 iTero Lumina intraoral scanners—3D imaging devices for creating digital representations of teeth and gums—under sole source procurement through Florida Administrative Code and Statute 287.057. State and local procurement under this code spans higher-education institutions with dental and allied-health programs seeking advanced clinical and educational equipment. The issuing body in recent activity is a state college system; no repeat buyers or broader pattern across county or municipal health departments appears in the available records.

Activity centers on Florida, with the Valencia College solicitation posted in April 2026 (due November 27, 2025). The scanner procurement totaled $143,196.00 for four units from Align Technology, Inc. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope—periodontal hand instruments—and the actual equipment being solicited suggests either a cataloging error in the state procurement system or a broadened interpretation of the code to encompass periodontal diagnostic tools. No other recent state and local opportunities under this code are present in the available records, indicating limited current activity or narrow application in public-sector procurement.
