UNSPSC 42152900: Dental and subspecialty instrument and device accessories

In this classification, this class includes the accessories of instruments, devices and components utilized in specialized dental based procedures.

UNSPSC 42152900 Dental and subspecialty instrument and device accessories is a Class code under which state and local governments procure specialized dental imaging and diagnostic equipment, primarily intraoral scanners and supporting technology for educational and clinical dental programs. Recent solicitations show colleges and universities acquiring advanced 3D digital scanning devices for dental hygiene curricula and clinical training, alongside master-vendor agreements for on-demand supply of dental and medical equipment. The issuing bodies are primarily higher-education institutions (colleges and universities) establishing procurement frameworks for dental and allied-health departments. One of the recent opportunities, however—a City of Arlington, Texas RFP for a cyanide flow analyzer posted in August 2026—falls outside the dental instrument scope and appears to be miscoded; the analyzer serves wastewater treatment monitoring, not dental applications.

The code sees activity in Florida and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department (Solicitation SS202620, sole-source procurement, due November 27, 2025) acquiring four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc. for $143,196.00 under Florida Statute 287.057; and Texas A&M University, Division of Finance Procurement Services (ITB TAMHSC-26-0648, due September 3, 2026) establishing a master-vendor pool agreement for dental and medical equipment and supplies to be ordered on demand. The Arlington cyanide analyzer opportunity aside, the code's actual procurement activity targets narrow, institution-specific acquisitions of advanced diagnostic imaging equipment and recurring supply agreements for educational and health-service operations at universities and colleges.
