UNSPSC 85581928: Replacement of lower tooth, multiple, with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of lower tooth, multiple, with synthetic substitute, 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 0CRX0J1

UNSPSC 85581928 Replacement of lower tooth, multiple, with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific dental surgical procedure. State and local governments do not solicit procurement of this discrete clinical service through the UNSPSC taxonomy. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect dental prosthetics or implant work; instead, they span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which align with the code's stated scope of replacing multiple lower teeth with synthetic substitutes. This code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors pursuing state and local procurement opportunities in the dental prosthetics or oral surgery category.

The mismatch between the code's clinical description and the actual solicitations posted under it suggests either a data-entry or classification error in the state and local procurement systems that generated these records. Vendors evaluating this code should verify the UNSPSC assignment with issuing bodies directly before pursuing opportunities, as the tagging does not reflect the work being bought. The code does not represent a practical procurement lane for dental service providers or dental supply vendors working with state and local jurisdictions.
