The most versatile and reliable hearing aid style — suitable for mild to profound hearing loss at any age.
The most versatile and reliable hearing aid style — suitable for mild to profound hearing loss at any age.
Behind-the-Ear hearing aids sit comfortably behind the ear, with a thin tube or wire connecting to a custom ear mould or dome in the ear canal. They are the most widely used hearing aid style globally — for good reason.
BTE aids accommodate the largest batteries and amplification components, making them suitable for all levels of hearing loss from mild to profound. They are particularly recommended for children, elderly patients, and those with dexterity limitations.
The only style suitable for every degree of hearing loss, including profound loss that other styles cannot address.
Larger components mean easier insertion, removal, and battery replacement — ideal for elderly patients or those with reduced dexterity.
The larger battery compartment provides significantly longer battery life than smaller styles, with rechargeable options available.
BTE aids are known for their durability. The main electronics sit outside the ear canal, away from earwax and moisture.
