What is a BTE Hearing Aid?

A BTE (Behind-The-Ear) hearing aid is a type of hearing device that sits comfortably behind the ear. It connects to a custom earmold or ear dome through a small, clear tube that delivers sound into the ear canal.

BTE hearing aids are suitable for all types of hearing loss, from mild to profound, and are known for their powerful performance, durability, and ease of use. They come in various sizes and styles, including standard BTEs and mini BTEs.

These devices often include advanced features such as Bluetooth connectivity, rechargeable batteries, directional microphones, and noise reduction. Because the main components are outside the ear, they are also easier to handle, clean, and maintain—making them ideal for children, seniors, and those with dexterity issues.

At Digital Hearing Center, we offer a full range of BTE hearing aids, personalized fitting, and expert aftercare to ensure the best hearing experience.
