Custom Earmolds and Earplugs
Extended or sudden exposure to loud sounds can damage hearing and is a major cause of hearing loss. Often, hearing loss caused by noise exposure is not noticed until it's too late and cannot be reversed.
Therefore, it is important to protect your hearing if you are regularly exposed to loud noise, including target shooters, motorcyclists, airline pilots, musicians, construction workers, and factory workers. To protect your hearing long-term, you may need to wear ear protection.
Some noises are especially dangerous with repeat exposure, including:
- Lawnmowers
- Truck engines
- Motorcycles
- Garbage trucks
- Chain saws
- Pneumatic drills
- Rock concerts
- Gun shots
- Jet engines
Custom Earmolds
Earmolds come in a wide variety of sizes and types. Some earmolds are solid, while some are soft or spongy. The most popular styles are full shell and half shell. Full shell earmolds are generally for high-level noise exposure, while half shell are for mid-level noise exposure. The type of earmold your audiologist recommends will depend on your individual needs.
Some earmolds come with a filtered attenuator, allowing for verbal communication while still protecting hearing, which is popular with musicians. These types of earmolds come in both electronic and non-electronic models. Earmolds are also popular for fitting over certain earbud headphones, under pilot boom-mic headsets, and other specialty uses.
As the name implies, custom earmolds are made custom to fit the unique contour of your ear. If you cannot get a comfortable or secure fit with traditional earplugs, custom earmolds may be for you. They offer some of the best hearing protection available.
Custom Earplugs
Earplugs are hearing protection that are usually for the canal only. Some earplugs are solid, while others allow for more sound to pass through. Specialized earplugs are available for musicians and medical professionals who still want the ability to hear most of their surroundings while protecting their hearing.
Specialty earplugs can be custom fit for your ear canal, and are usually more comfortable than traditional earplugs. Custom earplugs come both with or without handles or detachable cords.
Earmolds and earplugs are not just for those who wish to protect themselves from high noise levels. Custom solutions are also available for other types of ear protection, such as custom ear plugs for swimmers.
