What Are Ear Molds?
A custom ear mold is an in-the-ear device used to improve or preserve your hearing. You can use ear molds to protect yourself from high-frequency sounds or to amplify low-frequency sounds.
We Offer Custom Ear Molds
Since ears come in all shapes and sizes, it's important to get a custom ear mold that fits your unique shape. This device must be tight enough to prevent sound from leaking out but not so tight that it causes any pain while you use it. For an ear mold to be effective, you should visit your hearing healthcare professional.
