Keep your hearing aids going strong this summer with a daily cleaning routine!

End each day by wiping down your hearing aids with a soft cloth and using a wax pick for any potential debris. You can also clean earmolds with soapy water and ensure they’re dry before use.

Hearing loss is more common as we get older, but it can still affect us at any age. The Hearing Loss Association of America estimates that at least one in five teens has some form of hearing loss.

Having noticeable issues with your hearing aids? It could be a problem affecting the microphone.

If your hearing aid's microphone breaks, it won't pick up sounds. Checking in with your audiologist for a quick repair or replacement can help restore functionality quickly and effectively!

Many newer, more advanced hearing aids have special features that allow for a wider range of connectivity than ever before. For example, Bluetooth-enabled hearing aids can connect directly to Bluetooth-enabled Smart TVs.

Remember to keep your hearing aids safe while you enjoy your favorite summer activities. While some newer hearing aids can get wet, or even submerged, most older ones cannot.
