If your hearing healthcare provider has not mentioned middle ear implants, we can help bridge that knowledge gap. We pioneered the Esteem®, the first fully implanted active middle ear device, and can help you assess whether a partial or full implant is right for you.
There are several types of middle ear implants, yet all middle ear implants are NOT the same kind or type of device. Some are indicated for sensorineural hearing loss; others are for mixed or conductive hearing loss. Some are active; others are passive. Some are fully implanted; others are partially implanted. Some have MRI conditional approval; others are contraindicated for any meaningful level of MRI testing. Some are osseointegrated and replace part of your hearing anatomy; others are less involved - akin to hearing aids.
