Hearing Aids
Types of hearing aids:
ITE: In-The-Ear units are probably the most
comfortable, the least expensive and the easiest to operate. They are also the largest of the custom made styles.
BTE: Behind-The-Ear hearing aids are the largest hearing aids and they are very reliable. BTEs have the most circuit options and they can typically have much more power than any of the custom made in the ear units. BTEs are the units that "sit" on the back of your ear. They are connected to the ear canal via custom-made plastic tubing. The tubing is part of the earmold. The earmold is custom made from an ear impression to perfectly replicate the size and shape of your ear.CIC: Completely-In-the-Canal units are the tiniest hearing aids made.
They usually require a "removal string" due to their small size and the fact that they fit so deeply into the canal. CICs can be difficult to remove without the pull string. CICs do not usually have manual controls attached to them because they are too small.
