About UNSPSC 42152920

UNSPSC 42152920 Dental wire holders is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity captures specialized dental imaging and diagnostic equipment rather than the literal wire holders the code name suggests. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department solicited a sole source procurement for four iTero Lumina Scanners—advanced 3D intraoral imaging devices used for digital scanning of teeth and gums in clinical and educational settings. The code appears in education procurement, specifically in community college and vocational dental programs seeking capital equipment investments in diagnostic technology. The issuing body is a state education institution (Valencia College, Florida), indicating that this code may draw activity from public colleges and universities with dental hygiene or dental medicine programs.

The recent activity is limited to Florida, with the Valencia College opportunity posted in April 2026 and originally due November 27, 2025 (notice dates suggest the posting is dated after the response deadline). The procurement was conducted under Florida Administrative Code and Statute provisions for sole source acquisition, with a total value of $143,196.00 for the four units. The narrow institutional scope and sole source justification—exclusive to Align Technology, Inc as the specified provider—indicate that this code may capture equipment buys by educational programs where a particular manufacturer's product meets accreditation or curriculum requirements. No competitive bidding or set-aside designations were noted in the documentation. The recent-opportunities block contains only this single solicitation, suggesting limited current activity under this code in state and local procurement overall.
