The Prevalence and Impact of NIHL in Dentistry
You are at a critical occupational risk for noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) due to prolonged exposure to equipment like high-speed handpieces and ultrasonic cleaners, which often produce sounds over 85 dBA^3.
Research shows that you face a 50% higher risk of developing hearing loss compared to the general public, with tinnitus rates also notably doubled among dentists^7,8.

Recommendations for Hearing Protection
The American Dental Association has advocated for the use of hearing protection in dental operatories since 1974^2.
However, the discomfort and communication difficulties associated with traditional foam earplugs often deter their use, leading many to forego necessary ear protection^2.
This is the problem we’ve solved with Densonics Custom Dental Earplugs. More information below.

step 1:
Get Ear Impressions
Your Drifters are made from a cast of your ears. Getting that cast is simple and painless—and free with your order at our Burnaby or Surrey location. Live farther away? Have a local hearing professional take your impressions and send them to us.
step 2:
Made for Your Ears
We use your impressions to handcraft your Drifters, shaping and finishing each pair for a secure fit and a low profile against your pillow.
step 3:
Delivered to Your Door
Your finished Drifters arrive at your door ready to use, with everything you need and clear instructions to get started. If you’d like us to check the fit, visit us for support at no extra charge.
