A1 Hearing audiologists will be able to determine the best solution for you, depending on your needs, both aesthetically and functionality wise. Almost all hearing aids fit into three main categories:
BEHIND THE EAR (BTE)
BTE hearing aids are the most common hearing aid style. The body of the hearing aid sits behind your ear, and a tube directs sound into your ear. These hearing aids are easy-to-use, durable, and suitable for all levels of hearing loss.
IN THE EAR (ITE)
ITE hearing aids fit inside your ear, rather than behind it. The smallest ITE hearing aids
sit completely in your ear canal and are almost invisible. Larger ITE hearing aids are more powerful.
RECEIVER IN THE EAR (RITE)
RITE hearing aids combine aspects of BTE and ITE models. Connected by a thin wire, the hearing aid’s housing sits behind your ear, and a tiny speaker plugs into your ear canal.
RITE hearing aids are easy-to-use and discreet.
