If you have hearing loss, you might need only one small hearing aid to bring back the beautiful sounds of life.
Today's technology is significantly more advanced than even a year ago. Now, digital hearing instruments can actually "read" the volume level in a room and automatically increase or decrease the amplification based on your personal needs.

Styles of Hearing Aids
   
Photo - Completely in the Canal Hearing Aids Photo - CIC closeup
CIC's (Completely-In-the-Canal) are the smallest hearing aid type and are almost invisible in the ear. All components are housed in a small case that fits far into the ear canal. This takes advantage of the ear's own natural sound-collecting design and offers convenient telephone usage. This style is used for mild to severe hearing losses.
Photo - In the Canal Hearing Aids Photo - ITC closeup
A bit larger than the CIC, the ITC (In-The-Canal) hearing instruments also fit far into the ear canal. Canal hearing aids use a slightly larger battery than the CIC style. This style is used for mild to severe hearing losses.
Photo - In the Ear Hearing Aids Photo - ITE closeup
The larger ITE (In-The-Ear) hearing instruments can be used for a wider range of hearing losses. Due to their size, they can allow for larger sound amplifiers and more features, such as a telephone switch. They are often much easier to handle than the CIC and ITC. This style is used for moderate to profound hearing losses.
Photo - Behind the Ear Hearing Aids Photo - BTE closeup
With BTE (Behind-The-Ear) hearing instruments, electronics are housed within a case that fits behind the ear. Tubing and a custom made earmold direct the sound to the ear canal. BTE hearing instruments have a stronger amplifier and larger battery than smaller styles. This style is used for mild to profound hearing losses and is available in several colors, for hair and skin tone matching.
