Good hearing is the key to the full development of a child. For hearing loss, the best hearing aids, selected by an audiologist, can help restore hearing
In everyday life, hearing aids are any devices that amplify sound and deliver it into the ear canal. However, from the point of view of medicine, this is a big mistake. There are sound amplifiers (the cheapest devices) that people often choose on their own. They do not require certification, they increase the volume of all sounds evenly and are equipped with only a volume control.
For children, only hearing aids are suitable for hearing correction, hearing amplifiers are contraindicated (their use in children under 14 is prohibited) . Hearing aids are professional devices that process and amplify specific spectra of sound.
In addition, in -ear and in-ear hearing aids are not recommended for children under 12 years of age . Behind-the-ear products are considered the most optimal devices for children from an early age. Which manufacturers produce products that can be used in childhood?
