ITE Hearing Aids

Customizable & virtually invisible: Since it fits directly inside the ear canal, in-the-ear hearing aids are virtually invisible. Due to their small size, ITE devices are best suited for those with mild to moderate hearing loss. Additionally, whether or not you can use an ITE device depends on the amount of room in your auditory canal. (Our local Partner Provider will conduct a comprehensive hearing evaluation in order to fit you with the right style of hearing aid.)

BTE Hearing Aids

High-performance & discreet design: In their smallest form, behind-the-ear hearing aids are about the size of a coffee bean, featuring a sound tube with a customized ear mold or external receiver placed in the ear canal. BTEs are suitable for mild to severe hearing loss. This type of hearing aid is generally available in various sizes and styles depending on your preferred performance and battery strength.

Over the last few years, cell phones and computers have gotten smaller, thinner, and faster. But did you know that today’s hearing aids have also experienced the same type of innovations? In fact, they are like tiny, high-performance computers that are virtually invisible. Gone are the days of bulky hearing systems that were visible from 20 feet away. Now they are as small as a coffee bean.

To put it simply: Hearing aids supplement our hearing. But how exactly do they work? Firstly, hearing aids are designed to receive sounds from the outside world, just like a healthy ear would do. To do so, they include microphones as part of the design, which take sounds and convert them into vibrations, and then into electrical impulses.

However, at this stage these signals are often too weak, and need to be amplified before they can be converted into something wearers can actually hear. Amplifiers inside the hearing aid casing do the job, turning even very quiet noises into signals that can be turned into audible noise.
