UNSPSC 85581147 Extirpation of matter from lower gingiva, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific dental surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, surgical benefit program administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare — none of which concern periodontal or oral surgical procedures. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either persistent tagging errors in the state and local procurement systems or that the code is not actively used to classify work that state and local governments are currently buying.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block include state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and special-purpose districts (Santa Clara Health System). The geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. The representative opportunities show activity across benefits administration and occupational health rather than oral surgery: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year maximum (due October 16, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement targeting and verify any opportunity tagged to it before investing pre-bid effort.
