How do the user of the behind-the-ear hearing aid choose the ear mold?

Hard ear molds have good breathability, are relatively comfortable to wear, and are durable and can not be aged for a long time. However, the fit to the skin is not strong, and the sealing property is not high enough. If the hearing loss is heavy, the possibility of whistling is high. In addition, children are generally more playful and easy to bump, and the cartilage of the auricle is not fully developed and easily injured.

The soft ear mold is very soft and has good skin fit and strong sealing. It can effectively prevent howling and is used for patients and children with severe hearing loss. However, when the soft ear mold is used, the force angle is not correct, which may cause the sound tube to fall off or even the ear mold to crack. The cracking and leaking sound needs to be re-customized.
