From earwax to ear infections, many issues can prevent sound from making its way through the outer and middle ear to the inner ear and on to the brain. Let’s explore some common causes of acquired conductive hearing loss.

10-year-old BONEBRIDGE user Daniel from Spain talks about the life-changing decision to get a BONEBRIDGE bone conduction implant, how it improved his music enjoyment, and how it allowed him to play the cello without any restrictions.
There have been three generations of the MED-EL audio processors for bone conduction and middle ear implants: Amadé, SAMBA, and SAMBA 2. But what is the difference between them? We’ll take a closer look at that today—and even give you a chance to hear the difference. Find out in which situations the SAMBA 2 is technologically superior to the other processor models, how it suppresses noise, and what a classifier really does.
When he was 11 years old, William from the UK started using ADHEAR, our revolutionary bone conduction device designed for people with conductive hearing loss. Now, five years later, he shares his experience with the device and how it changed his life.
If you have conductive or mixed hearing loss, sounds can’t reach your inner ear effectively. Enter bone conduction implants. They pick up the sounds around you and send the vibrations directly to your inner ear, skipping the damaged parts. But not all bone conduction implants are created equal.
Michaela Davert is an enthusiastic fashion and beauty advocate, college student, and BONEBRIDGE recipient from the US. She loves sharing her everyday experiences with her MED-EL device on social media and informing the world about osteogenesis imperfecta, the disability she was born with. In this blog post, she tells us what motivates her to educate her audience about these two aspects of her life.
