Hearing Aid Styles

A Doctor of Audiology will recommend one or more hearing aid styles based on your level of hearing loss, aesthetic preferences, lifestyle needs and budget.

Invisible-In-The-Canal (IIC)

This custom-fitted style is inserted farther into the ear canal than other styles, so it’s completely invisible* when worn. IIC hearing aids are designed to be removed daily to promote good ear health. For mild to moderate hearing loss.

Completely-In-Canal (CIC)

CIC hearing aids are custom-made to fit completely in your ear canal. Only the tip of a small plastic “handle” shows outside the canal, which is used to insert and remove the instrument. For mild to moderate hearing loss.

In-The-Canal (ITC)

ITC hearing instruments are custom-made to fit in the ear canal with a smaller portion of the hearing aid showing in the outer ear. For mild to mildly severe hearing loss

In-The-Ear (ITE)

ITE hearing instruments are custom-made to fit within the outer portion of the ear. For mild to severe hearing loss.

Receiver-In-Canal (RIC)

Barely visible when worn, the RIC style is an instrument in which the receiver, or speaker, is inside the ear canal. Thin electrical wires are used instead of a plastic acoustical tube, reducing distortion. RIC hearing aids provide a comfortable, open fit. For mild to moderate hearing loss.

Behind-The-Ear (BTE)

The BTE hearing aid houses its hearing technology in a casing that rests behind the ear. A clear plastic acoustical tube directs amplified sound into an earbud or a customized earmold that is fitted inside the ear canal. For moderate to severe hearing loss.

Outstanding quality of live improvement. Dr. Li obviously is the top of her profession and one of the most caring and professional doctors I have had the honor of knowing. I thought my hearing disability was something I had to live with for the rest of my life. I was living with extreme loud tinnitus and a very limited social life. She was able to improve my hearing beyond my expectations and improved the quality of my life. I now can attend social functions in comfort as well as understanding conversations. I highly recommend PNA.

H.V.G.Bend, OR

Hearing aid follow up. I purchased a new hearing aid from PNA last year. They have excellent follow up with their customers. I have been back to their office several times in order to master the hearing aids features. I am an older person who can be confused by technology features but the staff at PNA patiently and quickly help me with these new features. I recommend PNA to other people.

G.A.G.Bend, OR

Visit.. I recently moved to Bend. On Monday I walked into PNA office. I was having problems with my hearing aides. The receptionist was vey helpful and got me in within an hour. I was very pleased with the service I got. The staff was so very helpful and friendly.
