For many people with hearing loss, a hearing aid is more than just a device—it’s a lifeline to the world around them. However, one often overlooked aspect of maintaining hearing aids is the regular replacement of small accessories. Components like ear domes, wax guards, tubing, and batteries play a critical role in sound quality, hygiene, comfort, and device longevity . 1. Protecting Sound Quality Over time, earwax, dust, and moisture can accumulate in accessories such as ear domes, wax guards, and tubing. This buildup can muffle sound or even block your hearing aid entirely. Regular replacement ensures your device delivers clear, crisp sound , allowing you to enjoy conversations, music, and everyday sounds without distortion. 2. Maintaining Hygiene Hearing aids sit directly in or behind the ear, making them prone to bacterial and dirt buildup. Replacing accessories regularly reduces the risk of ear infections and skin irritation . For elderly users or individuals with sensitive skin...

  When you or your family are facing   hearing   problems, do you find it difficult to choose which type of hearing aid? Today, I will tell you about the advantages and disadvantages of common CIC, ITC, BTE, and   RIC hearing Aids   to help you make a more appropriate choice. 1.  CIC, invisible deep ear canal hearing aid It is super small and can be worn deep in the ear canal. It is almost invisible from the front, and there is no need to worry about affecting the appearance. And because it is close to the eardrum, the sound is collected naturally, the sound quality is clear, and howling can be reduced. However, its battery compartment is small, and the battery life is short, so the battery must be replaced frequently. And because of limited space, the functions may not be so rich, such as some complex noise reduction and wireless functions are difficult to achieve. In addition, its power is relatively low, and friends with moderate to severe  hea...

  Your hearing aids work hard every day to help you stay connected to conversations, laughter, and the world around you. However, a few users are aware that two invisible enemies can quietly damage these devices: moisture and earwax. Without daily care, even the best hearing aids can lose performance, require repairs, or stop working altogether. Why is moisture and earwax a problem? Moisture is everywhere — in sweat, humidity, rain, and even from your skin. It can slip into your hearing aids and slowly corrode internal components. Meanwhile, earwax (cerumen) naturally produced by your body can clog sound openings, reduce sound quality, and block airflow. Good news: you don’t need expensive service visits to prevent these issues. With a few basic tools and a daily habit, you can keep your hearing aids clean, dry, and performing like new. The Three Essentials for Hearing Aid Hygiene: 1. Drying Box / Dehumidifier Case. After a long day of wearing your hearing aids, they need a break. ...

  The ear mold of the   hearing aid   is a specially customized ear plug for the behind-the-ear   hearing   aid. It plays a very important role in the compensation of   hearing Loss : 1. Improve the acoustic characteristics. An ear mold with reasonable design and excellent craftsmanship can improve the hearing aid effect by about 30%. 2. Prevent acoustic feedback. The ear mold establishes a closed acoustic channel between the hearing aid and the ear. The sound outside the ear mold is moderately isolated, and the sound inside the ear mold will not leak out from the external auditory canal, thus avoiding acoustic feedback (howling). 3. Fix the hearing aid. The eardrum can make the hearing aid more stable and comfortable to wear. If the ear mold is not suitable, it needs to be replaced in time: 1. It is recommended that adults replace it once a year, and those with severe hearing loss should replace it every six months. 2. Children should replace it according ...

  The answer to “Can hearing aids help deaf people?” depends on the type and severity of deafness. 1. Hearing Aids Help Many, But Not All Hearing aids can help people who have mild to moderate or even some severe hearing loss. They work by amplifying sound, making it easier for the user to hear conversations, environmental sounds, and more. For these individuals, hearing aids can significantly improve communication and quality of life. 2. Profound Deafness or Total Hearing Loss For people who are profoundly deaf or have no usable hearing in one or both ears, traditional hearing aids are often not effective. This is because no amount of amplification will make sound clearer if the inner ear (cochlea) is too damaged to process it. In such cases, other options might be more appropriate: Cochlear implants – Electronic devices that bypass damaged parts of the ear and directly stimulate the auditory nerve. Bone-anchored hearing systems – For people with conductive hearing loss or single-...
