Ear Wax Removal

Earwax, also known as cerumen, is a natural and beneficial substance in our ears. It protects against infections, provides lubrication, and typically exits the ear on its own. However, earwax can sometimes accumulate and lead to hearing difficulties or interfere with hearing aid use, making professional removal beneficial.

Our audiologists and hearing aid practitioners specialize in earwax removal methods, including manual extraction with the use of lighted currettes and irrigation with warm distilled water. Video otoscopy is sometimes available to help guide the process.

Earwax removal appointments include a thorough consultation, video otoscopy, and other assessments if required. A fee is charged for the appointment, which covers the reserved time and services, regardless of the outcome.
