UNSPSC 85581909: Resection of upper tooth, single, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of upper tooth, single, open approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0CTW0Z0

UNSPSC 85581909 Resection of upper tooth, single, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The source records five recent opportunities tagged to this code, but none involves dental extraction services or surgical dentistry. Instead, the tagged solicitations address inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for a county employee health plan, virtual primary and urgent care services for county employees, peer support services for mental health workers, and medical direction services for a fire department EMS program. None of these scopes align with the code's nominal commodity of dental surgery.

The mismatch suggests either misclassification by issuing bodies or data error in the source. State and local procurement offices do procure dental services, including extractions through contracted dental providers at county jails, employee health plans, and municipal clinics, but those opportunities do not appear in this code's recent record. A business development firm pursuing dental extraction services should verify current opportunities through direct search of state and local procurement portals rather than rely on this code's recent posting history.
