The ear canal is active i.e., its size changes as the jaw moves and its healthy walls slough debris. This results in everyday problems for the patient and the practitioner delivering hearing aids. For over 10 years Hearing Components has focused on ear canal research, invention and manufacturing practical solutions to overcome these problems. The result has been products you may know, e.g., ComplyTMCanal Tips, Ad.hear Cerumen Guards, and the new ComplyTMSoft Wrap. In 15 minutes we will provide practical solutions for you to select and help patients that have: (a) need to hear the latest and greatest aid; (b) need for a loaner earmould; (c) canal or CIC aids that slip out of straight canals; (d) hearing aids that quit 2 hours into the day; (e) frustration with aids that clog with "ear wax"; (f) hearing aids that "don't sound like they used to"; (g) TMJ action that causes feedback; (h) shells/moulds remade and remade without success and (i) lost weight and have feedback problems.
