Hearing Protection

Are you exposed to loud noise regularly? If so, you should be wearing custom hearing protection. Noise induced hearing loss in irreversible, therefore it is crucial to protect the hearing you have. Patients who work in construction, the music industry, military, and airlines are at a high risk for noise induced hearing loss and it is important to have properly fitting hearing protection. The doctors at Alexandria Hearing Centers are able to fit patients with custom hearing protection. Custom hearing protection can provide patients with better comfort, fit, sound quality, and protection, compared to disposable ear plugs. A custom earmold impression is taken so the hearing protection fits the precise shape of your ear, which can ensure dangerous sound levels are attenuated appropriately. If you are a musician, there are musician earplugs that protect your hearing, while allowing you to still hear your music at a safe volume. If you are exposed to loud noise often, attend loud concerts, and/or are in a career where you are at risk for noise induced hearing loss, call Alexandria Hearing Centers to schedule an appointment for custom hearing protection.
