There are numerous options to consider when selecting the best hearing aid. Oticon OwnTM is a discrete family of custom, in-the-ear hearing aids, and in this blog post, we'll discuss why getting a custom hearing aid may be the best option for you.
Custom hearing aids, also known as in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aids, are individualised hearing solutions tailored to your specific ear shape and degree of hearing loss. To make a custom hearing aid, a hearing care professional will take an impression of your ear shape, which will be used to create a mould that fits you perfectly. Custom hearing aids are typically small, discreet, and come in a wide range of styles and colours.
What are the advantages of getting a custom hearing aid?
More comfort
Because they are tailored to your specific ear shape, custom hearing aids fit more easily and comfortably. They also don't fall out when you remove your glasses, clothes, or facemask.
More discreet
Custom hearing aids are very discreet due to their small size and variety of colour options. In fact, the Oticon Own IIC is virtually undetectable in 9 out of 10 ears*.
Natural sound
The hearing aid can take advantage of the ear's pinna - the external part of the ear that collects sound around you - with custom styles. This can produce a more natural sounding experience.
Less wind noise
Because custom hearing aids are inserted inside the ear, the pinna acts as a natural shield against wind noise.
Easy to wear
They are simple to insert and remove because only one piece must be correctly placed instead of two. Regardless of size, some custom hearing aid styles may include Bluetooth® connectivity for direct streaming and hands-free phone calls.
