Why Hearing Protection Matters
Your hearing is vital to so many areas of life, and once it is damaged, it does not come back. Whether it is a single loud blast or years of steady loud noise, your ears can suffer lasting harm. Noise-induced hearing loss is the most common form of hearing loss and is permanent. That is why protecting your hearing now is much easier than trying to correct it after the damage has already been done.
We believe prevention is key when it comes to protecting your hearing. Many of our patients are exposed to loud environments daily, and the proper protection can make a huge difference. With custom-fit solutions, we will help you preserve your hearing and avoid the permanent consequences of ongoing noise exposure.
Who Needs Custom Hearing Protection?
There are many aspects of living in Northern Michigan that can lead one to be exposed to loud sounds. Hunting, logging, farming, construction, and outdoor equipment use are all common in our area. There are also many recreational activities like motorsports, hunting/target shooting, or attending concerts that can put your hearing at risk for damage.
Custom hearing protection is not just for high-noise workers; it is for anyone who values their hearing. Whether you are an avid hunter, someone who uses loud tools or machinery, enjoys woodworking, or a musician, you deserve proper hearing protection that is a good fit and works. That is why it doesn’t matter what age you are, everyone should be taking the appropriate steps to protect their hearing long before damage begins.
Types of Custom Hearing Protection We Offer
We offer a wide range of custom options to match your lifestyle and needs. Some are designed for everyday use, while others are built for specific tasks or sound environments based on your hobbies or lifestyle. You can choose the style and level of protection that works best for you.
Here are a few of the most popular types:
Solid Earplugs
Solid earplugs for maximum noise reduction during shooting, heavy machinery work, or to provide quiet when sleeping.
Filtered Earplugs
Filtered earplugs that lower sound evenly, which is a great solution for musicians or concert-goers.
Digital Hearing Protection
Digital hearing protection like Phantom from Starkey, which protects you when loud blasts occur and still allow safe sounds to remain audible.
Custom
Swim Plugs
Custom swim plugs for those with ear tubes, frequent infections, or water sensitivity.
These custom options offer better comfort, performance, and long-term protection than off-the-shelf products.

Our Custom Fitting Process
Getting custom hearing protection is simple, fast, and effective.
01.
Precise Impression
We begin by taking a precise impression of your ear canal. This impression ensures that the final product will fit snug and secure in the ear without slipping, discomfort, or gaps.
02.
Build and Fit
Once your impressions are taken, we will send them to the manufacturer to be custom built, which takes roughly two weeks. Once we have your custom hearing protection, we will ensure a proper fit and walk you through how to wear and take care of them, making adjustments if needed.
03.
Personalized for Comfort
It is a personalized process that is designed around your safety and comfort.
Hearing Protection and Tinnitus Prevention
Prolonged exposure to loud noise not only can cause hearing damage; it can also trigger tinnitus. That continual ringing, buzzing, or humming in your ears can often start with damage from everyday noise.
Through the use of custom hearing protection, you not only protect yourself from hearing loss, but you also help reduce your risk of developing tinnitus later in life. For those already living with tinnitus, preventing further damage is crucial. We encourage anyone who is experiencing symptoms to schedule a visit and discuss protective options with one of our trusted providers.
