Frequently Asked Questions
-
Hearing aids work by picking up sound through a microphone, amplifying the sound via an internal amplifier, and then delivering the sound to the ear through a speaker. Modern hearing aids also have advanced features to reduce background noise and focus on speech clarity.
-
- There are several types of hearing aids, including:
- Behind-the-Ear (BTE): Worn behind the ear with a tube leading to the ear canal.
- In-the-Ear (ITE): Worn inside the outer ear, covering the entire ear.
- In-the-Canal (ITC): Fits partially inside the ear canal.
- Completely-in-Canal (CIC): Small and fits completely inside the ear canal.
- Receiver-in-Canal (RIC): The receiver (speaker) sits inside the ear canal, while the rest of the device is worn behind the ear.
-
The type of hearing aid that is right for you depends on factors such as the severity of your hearing loss, lifestyle, and personal preferences. An audiologist can assess your hearing loss and help recommend the most suitable hearing aid based on your needs.

To maintain your hearing aid, clean it regularly using a soft cloth or a hearing aid brush to remove dirt and wax buildup. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals. You should also store your hearing aid in a dry place when not in use to prevent moisture damage.
