How often do hearing aids need to be repaired or replaced?
Hearing aids require daily maintenance to eliminate wax and moisture that can cause problems. Customers should return to their audiologists several times a year to have their hearing aids cleaned and normal wear and tear repaired. Repairs usually come with a new warranty. Dr. Newcomb can clean and repair hearing loss devices of any brand in her practice, which also serves Greenbelt, Annapolis, and Silver Spring, Maryland. Patients should generally replace their hearing aids after four to six years. However, with proper maintenance, your hearing aid can last much longer than the above estimates.
