Types of Hearing Aids
There are 5 types of hearing aids. Learn about them here and get to know which one is best for you.
Behind the Ear Hearing Aids (BTE)
Consist of a plastic casing that rests behind the ear and a thin tube that connects the casing to an earpiece that is worn inside the ear canal. BTE hearing aids are suitable for people with mild to severe hearing loss and provide clear sound quality and easy adjustment.
Receiver in the Canal (RiC)
Similar to BTE hearing aids but with a smaller casing that sits behind the ear. The sound is transmitted through a thin wire to a speaker that is placed in the ear canal. RIC hearing aids are suitable for people with mild to moderately severe hearing loss and are more discreet than BTE hearing aids.
In The Ear (ITE)
Fit completely inside the ear canal and are custom-moulded to the shape of the wearer’s ear.
ITE hearing aids are suitable for people with mild to moderately severe hearing loss and are more discreet than other hearing aid types.
In the Canal
ITC hearing aids are custom-moulded to the shape of the wearer’s ear canal and are suitable for people with mild to moderate hearing loss. They offer good sound quality and are easier to handle than the completely-in-the-canal (CIC) hearing aids.
Completely in the Canal (CiC)
Smallest type of hearing aid and fit entirely inside the ear canal, making them almost invisible. CIC hearing aids are custom-moulded to the shape of the wearer’s ear and are suitable for people with mild to moderately severe hearing loss.
