Audiology Care in Red Bank, NJ

Yes, custom earplugs work significantly better than regular, over-the-counter earplugs. Custom ear protection is molded to the exact shape of your ear canal, providing a precise seal, better comfort, and more consistent noise reduction. Foam or silicone earplugs often shift, loosen, or block sound unevenly, while custom earplugs deliver reliable protection without over-muffling. At NeuroHear, custom earplugs are professionally fit by an audiologist to ensure optimal performance and safety.

Absolutely. Custom ear protection is a smart long-term investment in hearing health. Repeated exposure to loud noise such as concerts, workouts, commuting, power tools, or nightlife can lead to permanent noise-induced hearing loss and tinnitus. Custom earplugs reduce harmful sound levels while preserving clarity, helping protect both your ears and your brain over time. Many patients find that one high-quality pair lasts years, making them cost-effective and medically beneficial.

The best earplugs for concerts and loud environments are custom musician earplugs with filtered sound technology. Unlike foam earplugs that block everything, filtered earplugs lower volume evenly across frequencies, so music still sounds clear and natural. NeuroHear offers custom concert earplugs designed for live music, sporting events, clubs, and festivals which are ideal for anyone who wants protection without sacrificing sound quality.

This makes them ideal for musicians, concertgoers, fitness instructors, and professionals who need to hear clearly while staying protected. NeuroHear specializes in precision-fit ear protection that balances safety and sound quality.

Musicians typically use custom-molded musician earplugs with interchangeable filters. These earplugs lower sound levels without altering pitch or tone, allowing musicians to hear music accurately while protecting against long-term hearing damage. Many performers, DJs, and sound engineers rely on audiologist-fit ear protection to prevent tinnitus and hearing loss. NeuroHear provides professional musician earplugs tailored to your instrument, environment, and listening needs.

Yes, custom sleep earplugs are the most comfortable option for all-night wear. They are made from soft, medical-grade materials and designed to sit flush in the ear, making them ideal for side sleepers. Custom sleep earplugs help block snoring, city noise, traffic, and roommates without causing pressure or ear pain. NeuroHear designs custom sleep earplugs specifically for comfort, safety, and uninterrupted rest.

Noise reduction depends on the type of earplugs used. Foam earplugs typically reduce noise by 20–30 decibels, but results vary based on fit. Custom earplugs provide consistent, predictable noise reduction, often between 9–30 decibels, depending on the filter selected. At NeuroHear, we help you choose the right level of noise reduction based on your lifestyle, environment, and hearing health goals.

Custom ear protection typically lasts 3–5 years, depending on usage, ear growth or changes, and care. With proper cleaning and storage, many patients use their custom earplugs for several years without issues. Because they are durable and precisely fit, custom earplugs often outlast disposable alternatives and maintain their effectiveness over time.

Yes, wearing ear protection is one of the most effective ways to prevent noise-induced hearing loss. Consistent use of properly fitted earplugs reduces damage to the inner ear caused by loud sounds. This is especially important for people exposed to music, fitness classes, construction noise, travel, or recreational activities.
