Expert Ear wax Removal.

What is Ear Wax?

Earwax, also known as cerumen, is a natural, sticky oil made by glands in your ears. It helps keep your ears clean by trapping dirt and dust.

It's important not to try to remove earwax yourself because you could hurt your ears. Instead, it's best to let a hearing care professional handle it safely. Sometimes, you might have too much earwax, which can happen for different reasons like having narrow ear canals, getting older, using cotton swabs, or wearing hearing aids. If you wear hearing aids, it's especially important to clean them every day to prevent earwax from causing damage.

What to Expect

  • Ear Health Checkup

    The Ear Care Practitioner (ECP) will ask for your permission to examine your ear(s) using the digital video otoscope called the Tympa device. This allows examination of the ear canal and eardrum.

  • Hearing Test

    A hearing check involves placing headphones over both ears. The Tympa device will play a range of different sounds at varying loudness and pitch through the headphones. The aim of the test is to establish the quietest sounds you can hear and identify any potential hearing weakness. You may experience discomfort to some loud or high pitch sounds in the test, but this tends to be temporary.

  • Ear Wax Removal

    Ear wax removal may be necessary to relieve fullness/blocked sensation of the ear, and/or to enable otoscopy and hearing assessment. If the wax cannot be fully removed, a second or third appointment may be required with further softening of the wax for a few days between visits using alternative softeners as advised.

    Two methods of wax removal may be used during your appointment, microsuction and/or manual removal using an instrument.

Why Remove Ear Wax?

Ear wax might seem odd, but it's actually vital for protecting our ears. It acts as a natural defense, shielding delicate structures from harmful particles and bacteria, and even helps keep our ears clean.

However, when ear wax builds up too much, it can cause problems like pain, blockages, or even hearing loss. That's why it's crucial to regularly remove excess wax to maintain ear health.

While some may attempt to remove wax themselves, it's safer and more effective to seek professional help. Improper removal can lead to hearing damage or ear canal injury. By ensuring proper removal, you can preserve good airflow and protect your hearing.

Remember, taking care of your ears is essential for maintaining overall hearing health. Schedule regular ear wax removal to keep your ears clean and your hearing sharp.
