The 5 Styles of Hearing Instruments
Over-The-Ear - Also called “open fit” instruments, consist of a small instrument that fits behind the ear with a very fine clear tube that runs down and into the ear canal. Inside the ear canal, a small soft silicone dome or a custom-molded highly vented acrylic tip holds the tube in place. This design is very effective in reducing the occlusion effect – the sound of your own voice when amplified by a hearing instrument.
Behind-The-Ear - instruments have a plastic housing for the components which rests behind the ear. A clear plastic tube funnels amplified sound into an earmold in the ear canal.
In-The-Ear - instruments house their circuitry in a custom-formed earmold that fits within the outer portion of the ear. Its size can be helpful for those with limited manual dexterity.
In-The-Canal - instruments are designed so that the majority of the instrument fits down into the ear canal, with only a small portion facing out towards the outer ear.
Completely-In-The-Canal - instruments fit inside the ear canal. Barely visible-and then only if someone’s peering into your ear-the only clue to their existence is the head of a tiny plastic line that assists you with insertion and removal of the instrument.
We will help you find a hearing aid best suited for your needs. We look at the degree of your loss, your lifestyle and any physical limitations you may have.
