This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of lower tooth, open approach, single. 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 0CBX0Z0

UNSPSC 85581974 Excision of lower tooth, open approach, single (Commodity) covers surgical dental extraction procedures that state and local governments procure as part of inmate healthcare, employee health benefits, and municipal medical services. The code shows no direct match to recent state and local opportunities; the five most-recently posted solicitations under this code involve comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which center on dental extraction as a discrete line item or primary deliverable.

Activity under the code is sparse and misaligned with the code's nominal scope. Issuing bodies across the source material include county governments (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California) and municipal agencies (Santa Monica Fire Department, California), but none of the recent solicitations isolate dental surgical services as a billable or contractable unit. Dental services appear only as a line within broader medical and healthcare procurement—for example, the Muscogee County Prison RFP (due May 15, 2026) lists "dental services" as one element of comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services, but the contract emphasizes intake screening, chronic care management, emergency services, pharmacy operations, and hospital referrals. The code does not appear to reflect current state and local procurement practice for dental extraction services as a standalone category.
