On Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, Joel Marshall leads Breeze Dental Ceramics, a boutique dental laboratory built on precision, consistency, and a deep respect for the craft. After years in education, implant sales, and general management,
Joel returned to where it all began: the bench.
“I missed working with my hands and creating something artistic,” he says. “I wanted to build a small, high-end lab where I could focus on personalised, high-quality work.”
That commitment to quality is evident in every case and supported by one tool above all: the NSK Ultimate XL system.
From Start to Finish, NSK Delivers
Every case at Breeze Dental Ceramics follows a well-defined workflow, with precision built into each step. Whether working with plastics, metal, ceramics, or zirconia, Joel relies on the NSK Ultimate XL to deliver consistent performance and refined results.
“It’s used the majority of the time, from heavy grinding to final polish,” he says.
“It gives me more control and a cleaner finish. I use it every single day.”
Trusted Performance. Built to Last.
For Joel, having equipment he can count on is non-negotiable. “They don’t break down, and that means I can meet all my turnaround times – which is everything in this business.”
“They’re the smoothest-running handpieces I’ve ever used, and I’ve never seen one break. And if I need support, I know I can call NSK directly. That kind of backup really matters.”
That reliability translates into fewer disruptions and better results – case after case. “Because they run smoother, they give you more control and that really shows in the final finish.”
Advice from the Bench
Joel is always looking to improve his lab’s efficiency with investments like wet milling and full-arch photogrammetry on the horizon. But no matter how technology evolves, his focus stays the same: choosing tools that support craftsmanship and precision.
“Buy the right tool once will save you time and money in the long run,” he says. “If your handpiece skips or vibrates, it affects the finish. But when it runs smoothly, you get better results – and your team will thank you.”
For Joel, the NSK Ultimate XL is more than a bench top system – it’s the foundation of his work, with precision his clients expect, and the craftsmanship he values.
