How Our Professionals Take Ear Impression

We handle this delicate process rather carefully. Our clinic takes a patient-centric approach and implements the right technical skills for the best outcome. The entire procedure requires about 15-20 minutes, and you can resume your routine right afterward.

Pre-examination: Count on the professional for an accurate examination with an otoscope. Otherwise, infections of blockages may hamper the impression.
Otoblock insertion: This small foam or cotton barrier is placed in the ear canal to keep the impression from going too deep. It protects the eardrum as well.
Impression material mixing and insertion: The material is silicone-based and is gently injected into the ear canal to get its shape, ensuring no bubbles or gaps.
Setting and removal: The material hardens to get the exact shape of the ear. We remove the ear mold for the hearing aids and examine the ear to check for signs of harm.
Post-procedure care: We check if the impression has come out absolutely accurate and will clean the ears if needed. Finally, we use the impression to create the device.

Note: While there are ear impression kits available in the market, trying to do it yourself comes with a lot of risks. Besides inaccurate impressions, the molding material might get too deep into the ear canal and cause severe damage. So, trust none but the professionals at Advance Hearing Center to get an ear impression of the highest quality.

Ensuring Precise Ear Impressions

The comfort and fit of a custom fit ear device come from an accurate ear mold impression. We are extra mindful of the procedure, as poor or inaccurate impressions can leave the user vulnerable to hearing damage.

Hearing Aids: From the fit of the hearing aid to reducing the possibility of buzzing sounds, an accurate ear impression will result in a proper device that makes communication easy.
Earplugs: Custom earplugs offer incredible protection to the ear in loud environments. A well-fitted device ensures maximum comfort even during prolonged use.
In-ear Monitors: Owing to an accurate ear impression, the in-ear monitor will be able to offer excellent clarity and sound isolation. The user faces no distraction with in-ear monitors.
