In a 2017 study, nearly all participants with both hearing loss and tinnitus experienced a reduction in tinnitus symptoms with the use of hearing aids.2

Hearing aidshelp you access meaningful sounds by amplifying them, which allows you to shift your attention from the tinnitus to what's important to you and living the life you want.

Also, some of today's hearing aids have sound therapy programs built into them, which can provide additional relief for those who experience tinnitus.

How can hearing aids help with tinnitus?

You may be wondering, do hearing aids help with tinnitus? Are there hearing aids for tinnitus? Or can a hearing aid stop tinnitus? In many cases, wearing one of these devices can reduce the symptoms of this condition often to a level where those suffering from tinnitus are barely able to hear it. Hearing aids are capable of controlling several elements of your hearing, thanks to innovations in hearing aid technology. With various brands and styles, a solution from your hearing care professional is likely available to those suffering from tinnitus symptoms.

Hearing cars driving by, drops of rain, and footsteps more clearly can help filter out or even cover up the ringing or buzzing. Some hearing aids also have Bluetooth capabilities or white noise options, so you can listen to some kind of sound no matter the time of day. With your brain stimulated by these noises, it can help reteach your mind which signals to deliver and which ones to ignore.

One of the main complications of living with tinnitus is stress, which can cause your condition to flare up, becoming increasingly difficult to manage. As a result, you’ll likely be left frustrated and fatigued. Wearing hearing aids can reduce your stress levels as you will not be missing out on communication and everyday sounds, thereby feeling more in control of your sensory experience.

Since tinnitus can also affect your sleep because the sound you hear may be increasingly difficult to ignore at night, learning to live day-to-day with hearing aids may help lessen its impact in the evening. It is recommended you remove your hearing aids before going to bed for safety purposes, but your brain may learn to quiet these noises since its ability to do is being stretched and flexed during the daytime. You’ll also likely be more engaged in everyday activities, enjoy a profound sense of calmness, and may notice sounds you have not experienced in a long time.

It is important to note that hearing aids are not a cure for tinnitus. They can only provide auditory stimulation to help with the uncomfortable symptoms of this condition.

What are the best hearing aid styles for tinnitus?

1. Behind-the-ear hearing aids

Hearing aids that sit behind your ears are one of the best types of hearing aids for people with tinnitus because they do not block the ear canal, which is important for tinnitus management. BTE hearing aids sit behind the ear and have a wire that enters the ear canal.

The smallest behind-the-ear hearing aid style is called miniRITE. It has a small, soft silicone cap that fits comfortably in the ear, allowing sound to move naturally and comfortably into the ear canal.

2. Hearing aids with built-in sound therapy
