Patients with hearing loss worry about hearing aid side effects when they consult hearing aids and the longer they wear them, the worse their hearing will be. An in-depth investigation found that people are worried that wearing hearing aids will lead to damage to their hearing. As a result, other people are afraid that using hearing aids will make their hearing worse.

In the world of hearing aids, there is an ongoing debate: which is better, analog or digital? At Mimitakara, we are proud to be at the forefront of digital hearing aid technology. And we want to share with you the exciting advantages of going digital. Whether you are considering CIC rechargeable hearing aids , Bluetooth hearing aids , BTW hearing aids or ITC hearing aids, digital technology has something special to offer.

After we introduced the differences between CIC and ITC in the previous blog. This time we will introduce the RIC and BTE hearing aid models and see how much they are different. RIC is a hearing aid in which speakers are placed in the ear canal. This makes listening to sounds close to nature through the ear canal. The machine is small and compact. Hard to notice even though it’s behind the ear. In addition, the amplification level can be adjusted according to the speaker size chosen. To suit the user and improve the efficiency of the hearing aid. 

Hearing aids are auxiliary tools, it is impossible to replace the function of people’s organs. Just like people with dentures and glasses can help improve. But it is impossible to restore it to its original state or beyond its original function hearing aids are the same. Hearing aids can help people with hearing loss hear more clearly and communicate more easily. But it cannot reach the level of good ears as before. So the most common problem in clinics is not being able to hear clearly? Today we will summarize 4 frequently asked questions so that everyone can understand them better. 

Hearing is an important part of everyday life. But most people don’t know when they are damaging their ears. Causes of hearing loss include infection, aging, and traumatic brain injury. But one of the most common causes is exposure to loud noises, such as firecrackers. Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) can develop after one episode of strong noise exposure or after listening to very loud noises over time passed. Everyone has tiny hair cells in the inner ear (cochlea) that vibrate and send electrical signals to the auditory nerve, helping you hear. Different groups of hair cells interpret sound frequencies differently. Over time, if these hair cells are damaged or broken enough, hearing loss can result.

When it comes to hearing aids, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. At Mimitakara , we understand that everyone’s hearing needs are different. That’s why we offer so many options. including hearing aids Completely-in-Canal (CIC) and In-the-Canal (ITC) In this blog post we explain the differences between the two types of hearing aids. To help you make the right choice. CIC (Completely-in-Canal): These hearing aids are the smallest and most discreet. It is the right size for the ear canal, making it invisible to others. 

ITC (In-the-Canal): ITC hearing aids are slightly larger and fit partially into the ear canal. They remain discreet. But it may be more visible than with a CIC  device.
