What are BTE and ITE OTC Hearing Aids?
BTE (Behind-the-Ear) hearing aids have a plastic case behind the ear, with electronics connected by a tube to an earmold or ear tip in the ear canal. They support larger batteries and provide better amplification. These aids are ideal for people with more severe hearing loss and for those with dexterity issues.

What is the difference between BTE and ITE hearing aids?
The primary difference between BTE (Behind-the-Ear) and ITE (In-the-Ear) hearing aids is their design and placement. BTE hearing aids sit behind the ear and connect to an earmold or ear tip inside the ear canal. ITE hearing aids fit entirely within the outer ear - providing a smaller, more discreet design.
