Why Earwax Removal is Important
While earwax is beneficial in moderate amounts, an excess can create problems. If you’re struggling with one or more of the following symptoms, we encourage you to visit us for an ear cleaning and earwax removal appointment.
Hearing Loss
Significant buildup of earwax can block the ear canal, leading to temporary hearing loss or muffled sounds, impacting overall communication and quality of life.
Discomfort
Significant buildup of earwax can block the ear canal, leading to temporary hearing loss or muffled sounds, impacting overall communication and quality of life.
Tinnitus
In some cases, excessive earwax may contribute to tinnitus, a perception of ringing or buzzing in the ears, making it difficult to concentrate and enjoy conversations.
Infection Risk
Blockages can trap moisture, increasing the risk of bacterial infections in the ear canal.
Our Approach to Earwax Removal
A focus on comfort and safety is paramount during the earwax removal process. Your ear cleaning appointment is streamlined and thorough to ensure your comfort throughout the process, so you can get back to hearing your life with clarity.
Assessment
A thorough examination of ear canals is conducted using an otoscope, allowing visualization of wax buildup and assessment of ear health.
Manual Removal
Specialized instruments are employed to gently extract earwax without causing harm.
Irrigation
This method involves using a gentle stream of warm water with the patented Earigator device to soften and flush out earwax safely.
Post-Removal Care
After removal, any necessary aftercare recommendations will be discussed to maintain ear health and prevent future buildup.

Maintaining Ear Health
To prevent excessive earwax buildup in the future, consider these ear care tips:
Avoid Cotton Swabs
Using cotton swabs can push earwax further into the ear canal, leading to blockages. Allow the ear's natural cleaning process to work or consult a professional for removal.
Regular Check-Ups
Visiting an audiologist regularly can help you monitor ear health and address potential issues before they escalate.
Keep Ears Dry
After swimming or bathing, ensure that ears remain dry and free of moisture, which can contribute to wax buildup or ear infections.
