In-the-Canal - These hearing aids are custom made to fit mostly inside your ear canal. This is also a good option for mild to moderately severe hearing loss.
In-the-Ear - These hearing aids not only provide optimum sound quality but their size and durabilty make them easy to handle and user friendly. This style is appropriate for mild to severe hearing loss.
Behind-the-Ear (BTE) - This is a more traditional style of hearing aid that sits comfortably behind the ear amplifying sound through a tiny tube that connects to a custom mould inside your ear canal. The larger style allows for more amplified sound and batteries with longer life. The BTE is a good option for hearing loss from mild to profound.
Receiver-in-the-Canal (RIC)/ Open Fit - These hearing aids are a great choice for people who do not want the feeling of something in their ear. The small aid sits behind the ear with a fine tube that goes into the canal. This style helps with background noise, high frequency loss and most mild to moderate hearing loss.
