Welcome to Winer Chiropractic Center

We’re excited to meet you and look forward to helping you achieve better health through our chiropractic care. To ensure that your first visit goes smoothly and you’re comfortable throughout the process, we’ve outlined what you can expect when you come in for the first time.

What to Expect on Your First Visit

We want your first experience with us to be as efficient and informative as possible. Here's a brief overview of the process:

CONSULT

This is the first step in the full arch process. During this appointment, you will meet with your Dr. Kurt O. Bally DMD FICOI to discuss your needs and options for dental implants. The consultation will typically take about an hour. This first and free visit is $525 value.
STEP 1
STEP 2

RECORDS

Your dentist will take a series of records, including dental x-rays, 3D scans, and photographs. These records will be used to create a treatment plan and to fabricate your dental implants.

PRE-SURGICAL CONSULT

This appointment is held before the surgery to discuss the risks and benefits of the procedure, as well as the recovery process. You will also have a chance to ask any questions you may have.
STEP 3
STEP 4

SURGERY

This is the procedure where the implants are placed into your jawbone. The surgery typically takes about 2 hours per jaw and is done safely with oral anesthesia. All patients leave with their new temporary teeth on the day of the surgery and will return within 1-2 weeks to have their first post-op visit and receive their fist implant prototype teeth. It is important to remain on a very soft diet after surgery and before receiving your first prototype.

PROTOTYPES

1-2 weeks after your surgery you will return to check your healing and receive your first set of implant prototype teeth that will be attached directly to your implants. We allow up to 3 versions of teeth during the healing process to ensure the dentist and patient is happy with the look and feel. As your implants heal your dentist will create a series of prototypes for your implant bridge. These prototypes will be used to test the fit and function of the bridge before it is permanently placed.
STEP 5
STEP 6

HEALING

The implants will need to heal for 4-6 months before the next step can be taken. Dr. Bally will also provide a night guard to help prevent excess pressure from going to your implants. As you heal you will remain on a soft diet.

PROTOTYPING AND VERIFICATION

Once the implants have healed, your dentist will create a final prototype of your dental bridge. This prototype will be verified to ensure that it is the correct size, shape, and color. Before authorizing the fabrication of your new zirconia implant smile.
STEP 7
STEP 8

DELIVERY

This is the appointment where your permanent dental bridge is placed. The procedure typically takes about 1 hour. It's a truly rewarding visit for everyone.

POST-DELIVERY CONSULT AND DOCUMENTATION

This appointment is held after your new zirconia implant smile is installed and your final night guard is given and instructions to maintain your smile are discussed. Final pictures, X-rays and video mark the end of your zirconia implant smile journey.
STEP 9
STEP 10

MAINTENANCE

Your zirconia implant smile will need to be maintained on a regular basis to ensure that it continues to function properly. This may include cleaning, adjustments, and checkups.

Brief Paperwork

Upon entering our office, you’ll be asked to complete some brief paperwork. This will help us gather general information about you, including your health history and any current conditions or symptoms you may be experiencing. This paperwork is essential to understand your needs and allow us to offer the best possible care.

Consultation

Once your paperwork is completed, you’ll meet with our chiropractor for a consultation. During this time, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss your health concerns, symptoms, and any specific problems you may be experiencing. We will listen carefully to understand your needs and recommend potential treatment options based on your discussion.

History and Examination

To gain a better understanding of your condition, our chiropractor will ask you several questions regarding your health history and current symptoms. Based on this conversation, a thorough physical examination will follow. During the examination, various specialized tests will be conducted to determine which tissues are affected and to what extent. This step is critical in pinpointing the root cause of your discomfort and allowing us to create an effective treatment plan.

Imaging Studies

Depending on your specific condition, imaging studies may be required to gain further insights into your health. We may take X-rays or, in some cases, recommend advanced imaging studies like an MRI. These images help us develop the most accurate and effective treatment plan tailored to your needs. They also assist in ruling out more serious underlying conditions.

Next Steps

After your initial visit, our chiropractor will review all the gathered information and imaging results (if needed) to discuss a personalized treatment plan designed to help you achieve your health goals. Whether you’re dealing with pain or seeking preventative care, we’ll work with you every step of the way to ensure the best possible results.
