In-the-Ear

In-the-Ear hearing aids are custom molded to your physical ear. These devices range in size depending on your physical ear shape/size and your level of hearing needs. In some cases, these hearing devices are not possible due to power needed to reach the needs of your hearing or the shape of your ear. Your hearing professional will educate you on the options and styles right for your needs.

In-the-Ear vs Over-the-Ear

Each style has benefits.In-the-EarOver-the-Ear
Doesn’t Interfere with Glasses, Hats, or Masks – With the entire device fitting within the ear, nothing can be tangled or cause pressure.  
Natural Acoustics – The ear is the best microphone. These products still use the natural shape of the ear for direction identification. 
Great for Dexterity Challenges – One device is easier to grab and correctly place  
Discrete Look – When the entire device is within your ear, nothing stands out. 
Light, Airy fit – only a soft tip attached to a tube or wire rests within the ear canal. 
Quick fit- These devices require little customization to the physical device. 
Wide-Range of hearing loss – Easily stores all power and technology needed for all levels of needed amplification. 
Easy to fix – wires, receivers and soft tip buds are easily changed out for quick repairs.
