BTE, RIC, ITC, CIC and IIC

At HHB Speech and Hearing Clinic, we offer a full range of advanced hearing aid styles to suit different hearing needs, preferences, and lifestyles. The most common types include Behind-The-Ear (BTE), Receiver-In-Canal (RIC), In-The-Canal (ITC), Completely-In-Canal (CIC), and Invisible-In-Canal (IIC) hearing aids. BTE hearing aids sit comfortably behind the ear and connect to a custom earpiece inside the ear canal. They are powerful, durable, and ideal for all ages and degrees of hearing loss. RIC hearing aids are a more discreet version of BTEs with the receiver placed in the ear canal, offering natural sound quality and enhanced comfort. ITC hearing aids are custom-fit and sit partially in the ear canal, making them less visible while still being easy to handle. CIC devices fit deeper in the canal, offering a cosmetically appealing solution for mild to moderate hearing loss. The most discreet option, IIC hearing aids, are nearly invisible and fit deep inside the ear canal, ideal for those seeking maximum discretion. Each type has its unique features, and at HHB, our expert audiologists guide patients in selecting the right style based on their hearing loss, ear anatomy, and lifestyle needs. All models are available in digital, programmable formats with advanced features like noise reduction, directional microphones, and Bluetooth connectivity. At HHB Speech and Hearing Clinic, we ensure a perfect balance between comfort, performance, and aesthetics, helping our patients hear clearly and live confidently.
