When we think of hearing loss and the need to protect our hearing health, we often think of the aging population. The truth of the matter, however, is that we all need to do a better job protecting our hearing. Although hearing loss doesn’t come with symptoms that we can see in person, monitoring your own hearing can save you from future hearing loss that requires even more extensive treatment. Our audiologists can help you find the best hearing protection for your lifestyle. From ear molds to ear plugs, our audiologists can help you to prevent future hearing loss related to loud noises, from either recreational or work-related activities.
We need to take our hearing health seriously now, so that we will be able to enjoy our hearing in the future. Hearing protection comes in many shapes and varieties, and here at Advanced Hearing Group, we are able to offer several different types of protective devices depending on your needs. It has been proven that excessive noise exposure can cause temporary hearing loss, permanent hearing loss, ringing in the ears known as tinnitus, or even a stuffy feeling in the ears.
When you’re repeatedly exposed to loud noises at work or during some recreational activities, such as shooting, racing, building, music, etc., you could face the risk of permanent and irreversible hearing loss. This too, could also bring on tinnitus. While loud noises are often just considered “part of the job” or “part of the fun,” our audiologists know differently and can help you find the right protective device to protect your hearing, no matter what you are doing. You will still be able to do all the things you love, while enjoying maximum protection, as well as comfort and wearability – which is often a concern of our clients.
Ear molds are a product that are custom-fit for each client, and they provide exceptional hearing protection in a variety of situations. They are worn inside of the ear, which is why we take a cast of the ear – for the perfect, unique fit. These custom ear molds will not only help to reduce the loud noises around us, but they are also able to serve as ear plugs while swimming. This can help to alleviate the risk of developing swimmer’s ear.
We also offer expandable foam plugs, custom re-useable ear plugs and canal caps. The longer you wait, the more damage you could be doing to your hearing, so contact us today to get fitted for your custom ear molds!
