UNSPSC 42153010: Pulpotomy surgical instrument sets

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a set of surgical instruments specifically conformed to a pulpotomy surgical procedure. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42153010 Pulpotomy surgical instrument sets (Commodity) covers specialized dental and orthodontic equipment and instruments. Recent state and local activity under this code shows minimal alignment with the nominal category — the single documented recent opportunity involves intraoral scanning technology rather than pulpotomy instruments or surgical sets. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department posted a sole-source procurement for digital imaging devices, not surgical instrument sets, suggesting either a code-classification mismatch in the issuing body's tagging or extremely limited recent activity in the pulpotomy-instrument category itself. Issuing bodies under this code, where activity can be traced, include post-secondary education institutions with dental and dental-hygiene programs; broader state and local health systems, school districts, and county health departments would be expected buyers of dental surgical instrument sets, but recent opportunities do not surface them.

Geographic concentration is evident in Florida, where Valencia College conducted the primary documented solicitation. The college's purchase of 4 iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc. for $143,196.00 represents the only recent opportunity on record under this code; the notice was posted April 13, 2026, with an original due date of November 27, 2025, processed as a sole-source procurement under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (pulpotomy surgical instrument sets) and the actual procurement (digital intraoral scanners) suggests this code sees little relevant recent activity or is routinely misclassified by issuing bodies. Firms pursuing pulpotomy-instrument opportunities should monitor activity in related dental-equipment categories or track direct solicitations from dental schools and health systems rather than rely on this code's recent posting history.
