An ear mould is a custom-made piece of soft or hard plastic designed to fit your ear perfectly. It's an essential part of the hearing aid as it keeps the tubing in place so it goes down the ear canal directly instead of to the side. For those who rely on hearing aids, a custom-fit earmold can make a world of difference in hearing the sounds around them more clearly. As all ears are unique, it's crucial to have a hearing healthcare professional tailor an ear mould to fit the exact contours of your ear.
These devices must be tight enough to prevent sound from leaking out and causing feedback—but not so tight they cause discomfort. Even though earmolds are made from an impression of your ear, they may still require some adjusting. Additionally, since ear shape can change, your hearing care professional will check your earmold annually to ensure it still fits properly.
