Summer Hearing Protection

You probably have a checklist of things to bring to the pool or the beach, and you may want to add custom earmolds to it. These devices, created specifically for your ears, prevent water from entering the ear canal. At Girgis ENT, our team can create custom earmolds that let you or your child fully enjoy summer fun.

Preventing Swimmer’s Ear

When water enters the ear canal, it creates a moist environment that can result in bacterial growth. This can lead to an infection known as swimmer’s ear, or otitis externa. The condition is painful and can lead to temporary hearing loss—so prevention is important.

Swim earmolds prevent water from entering the ear canal, helping prevent bacterial growth. This is especially beneficial for children, whose eustachian tubes are smaller and more susceptible to infection.

Comfortable and Practical

Our custom swim earmolds are designed with comfort in mind. Because they are designed specifically for your ears, there should not be pressure or irritation.

 Earmolds also float in water, making them easy to find if you drop them.

Keep Your Ears Safe During Summer Fun

Custom swim earmolds are especially helpful for patients with ear tubes, frequent ear infections or sensitivity to water in the ears. Girgis ENT can create comfortable, custom-fit swim molds designed just for you or your child.
