Different Styles for For Your Hearing Needs and Preferences
From hearing needs to aesthetic appeal, there are many factors New Life Hearing Center professional consider before recommending a specific device. Understanding the differences between hearing aid styles will help you and your New Life professional choose the instrument that's right for you.

Behind-The-Ear
BTE instruments have a plastic casing that rests behind the ear and houses the device's technology. A clear plastic tube then directs amplified sound into an earmold inside the ear canal.

 

On-The-Ear
With soft, flexible earbuds and an extra-small casing, the on-the-ear model is light and comfortable.

 

Receiver-In-The-Canal
The receiver-in-the-canal device is small, discreet, and incredibly quick to fit; perfect for many first-time wearers.

In-The-Ear
Smaller, in-the-ear instruments house their technology components in a custom-formed shell that fits within the outer portion of the ear.

 

In-The-Canal
In-the-canal instruments are smaller still, featuring a custom shell that fits down into the ear canal and a smaller portion that faces out into the outer ear.

 

Completely-In-The-Canal
These devices fit completely in the canal. Only the head of a tiny plastic line—with which you insert or remove the instrument—shows above the canal.
