• Behind the ear (BTE) - Behind the ear (BTE) hearing aids are housed in a small curved case offering varying levels of cutting edge technology which fits discreetly behind the ear. BTE hearing aids are connected by a clear, thin tube to a custom made ear mould made just for you making it a perfect fit. With easy to access controls BTE hearing aids are ideal for those with dexterity problems.
• In the ear - In the ear (ITE) hearing aids have the latest digital technology contained in a custom moulded casing that fits in the ear. Although this type of hearing can be visible within the ear, ITE hearing aids are very easy to handle and have easy access controls.
