Invisible-in-Canal (IIC)

Tiny and Unobtrusive

Coming in at about the size of a raspberry, Beltone Invisible-in-the-Canal (IIC) hearing aids are the devices of choice for those who seek a hearing solution that can’t be seen.

Tailored to You

An Invisible-in-the-Canal (IIC) starts its journey through an initial ear impression of your unique ear canal. The impression is then rendered into a 3-D computerized model. After the rendering, each hearing aid component is digitally positioned, in order to efficiently compartmentalize each component. This process results in the tiniest finished product possible. Then, your hearing aid is built and delicately sculpted until it matches the contours of your ear canal.

Completely-in-Canal (CIC)

Another “Tiny” Offering

The CIC style hearing aid style is worn completely within the ear canal. Your Beltone of Permian Basin Hearing Care Professional will take an ear canal impression to give your hearing aid a perfectly tailored fit. This ensures maximum comfort and sound quality.

A Solution to Mild to Moderate Hearing Loss

CIC style hearing aids are most effective when treating mild-to-moderate hearing loss. Hearing aid wearers love them as they provide the benefit of improved hearing, with no one the wiser.
Available in the Beltone Trust, Legend, and Ally Models.

Mic-in-Helix (MIH)

Designed to Disappear

The main part of a MIC hearing aid hides in your ear canal. This piece is custom-manufactured based on an ear canal impression taken during your visit, so it’s very comfortable. The hearing aid microphone is a separate component and is worn within the concha, or curved groove, of your external ear—where it stays out of sight. A tiny transparent tube sends sound from the microphone in your concha to the component in your ear canal.

Genius Design Meets Near Natural Sound Quality

The ingenious construction of the MIC style hearing aid takes advantage of the ear’s anatomy to provide near-to-natural sound quality and outstanding appearance. By placing the microphone in the curved portion of your ear, it’s protected from wind noise. This makes the MIH style perfect for active individuals who spend time outdoors.
Available in the Beltone Trust, Legend.

Receiver-in-Ear (RIE)

New Kid on the Block

Receiver-in-Ear (RIE) hearing aids are the newest BTE style devices on the market, and, the most popular. An RIE hearing aid is comprised of a very small casing that sits behind the ear. The casing houses all of the electronic components of the hearing aid except for the receiver (also called the speaker). This allows the casing to be extremely tiny, so it’s barely visible. A narrow transparent tube carries very thin wires from the casing to the receiver, which rests in your ear canal.

A Jack of All Trades

RIE hearing aids offer exceptional natural sound quality and can be used with custom-made or standard ear molds, depending on your individual amplification needs. Almost all types of hearing loss can be assisted with RIE style hearing aids.
Available in the Beltone Trust, Legend, and Amaze Models.

Behind-the-Ear (BTE)

Easy-to-wear BTE devices are small and feature a curved casing designed to nestle comfortably behind the ear. By matching flesh tone or hair color, they hide with ease. A transparent tube connects the device to a custom-created earmold worn in your ear canal. Ear molds are lightweight and comfortable, making BTE hearing aids easy to wear all day.

Budget-Friendly and Adaptable

BTE style hearing aids can be used by just about everyone. They assist the entire spectrum of hearing loss, from mild to severe. Additionally, they are budget-friendly and adapt to most lifestyles.
Available in the Beltone Trust, Legend, Boost Plus, Ally and Bold Models.
