What Are Bone Anchored Hearing Aids?
Bone anchored hearing aids (BAHAs) are implanted devices that use direct bone conduction to transmit sound, bypassing the outer and middle ear. They are ideal for individuals with congenital ear abnormalities or those who cannot use traditional hearing aids.
Who They Help
BAHAs are especially effective for patients with single-sided sensorineural hearing loss, allowing sound to be transmitted from the impaired side to the functioning cochlea, significantly improving spatial awareness and communication.
