Today's deep dive into "What can AI hearing aids actually do?"

AI hearing aids represent a meaningful advancement in hearing technology, especially for people who struggle to understand conversations in noisy environments.

The key distinction is that AI hearing aids help the brain receive clearer, more useful sound information. They cannot repair the underlying damage responsible for most permanent hearing loss.

Calling all dentists!

A Canadian study found that there is an 82% positive association with hearing loss and being a dentist, with more years of practice as a prominent risk factor.

The left ear was 71% more affected (right-handed people). This calls for more prevention and appropriate hearing protection during the use of drills and polishers.

We recommend a baseline hearing exam and a recheck every 2 years. For all of our dental practitioners, we also recommend wearing Earasers to provide adequate protection while working. https://www.earasers.net/products/earplugs-for-dentists-earasers

The only thing missing at this restaurant is you.

Rochester loves to eat out! We recently fit someone with one of the new AI hearing aids, who then went to dinner with their spouse and could hear better in that noisy environment than he could. "That was a first!"

We hear this feedback from our patients all the time. AI hearing aids do make a hugely noticeable difference in speech understanding in loud places.

Dr. Stephany’s Perspective on Tinnitus

If you live with tinnitus, you have probably searched for a cure.

You may have seen advertisements for supplements, drops, special diets, sound programs or devices promising to stop the ringing or buzzing in your ears. When tinnitus is interfering with sleep, concentration or simply your ability to enjoy a quiet room, those promises can be very appealing.

But there is an important distinction I make with my tinnitus patients at MacDonald Audiology ... Read On...

For many patients, the goal of tinnitus treatment is not to magically switch the sound off. It is to make the tinnitus less noticeable, less intrusive and less disruptive to everyday life.
