More about the 'Earigator'
Ear cleaning with a curette is time consuming and can result, depending on the patient, in abrasions.
Suctioning is loud and uncomfortable and there have been studies that suggest in some cases it may even cause hearing damage or tinnitus.
Irrigation traditionally has been worrisome too. Pressure and temperature are concerns. If the pressure is too great you risk damaging the eardrum and if the temperature is too cold you can cause a caloric effect making your patient dizzy or sick.
With this been said, irrigation now has the potential to deliver the most comfortable, effective, and fastest cerumen removal. The Earigator overcomes the above problems. Temperature and pressure levels are carefully controlled ensuring optimal levels a quick and comfortable treatment.
The Earigator has dual safety features for pressure and temperature, completely removing any room for error. It is the solution to fast procedural times, taking roughly 5 to 10 seconds to remove the most impacted earwax.
Testimonials for "The Earigator"
"I'm surprised every ENT practice in the country doesn't have one. It could make sense for general practioners and other practices. I think it could be used in a more widespread manner. We use them all the time, every day. Half the people who come to our office need to have their ears cleaned
