Ear wax is a naturally-produced substance that protects your ear from bacteria, dirt, and even insects! We recommend that you do not use cotton swabs to remove ear wax from your ears, as that could cause an issue with impaction. That being said, most hearing aid wearers are aware of the buildup of ear wax on their hearing aids. Ear wax can be cleaned with a wax pick and brush. Depending on the type of hearing aid you use, your devices might have built-in wax guards or filters. It is recommended that wax guards are replaced every six months. If your hearing aids have tubes, you might see an accumulation of wax in these parts as well. Our team at Greentree Audiology can show you how to safely remove these parts to clean out any accumulated ear wax.

Rechargeable hearing aid batteries: 1) If they have a battery door – need to be removed and placed on a soft cloth. This will enable you to clean the battery compartment carefully without damaging the battery on the side. 2) For batteries that do not require removal, you need to put the hearing aid itself into the charging station when you're not using them.
