Self Earwax Removal with the Bebird M9 Pro: Safety, Convenience and Independence

Earwax is a natural product of the body that helps protect the ear from dirt and bacteria. Yet an excessive buildup of earwax can lead to hearing problems, squeaky hearing aids, and even a strange sound from your own voice. Many people choose to have their ears professionally cleaned by a family doctor or ENT specialist, but with the Bebird M9 Pro, you no longer have to depend on these medical professionals. In this blog, we dive deeper into the advantages and disadvantages of removing wax yourself with the Bebird M9 Pro, and how this device helps you keep your ears clean in a safe and effective way.

Earwax: Useful but sometimes problematic

Earwax, or cerumen, is a substance produced by the body to protect the ear canal from dirt, dust and bacteria. It keeps the ear healthy and prevents harmful particles from penetrating the delicate inner ear. In most cases, earwax removes itself from the ear canal through daily activities such as chewing and talking.

However, problems arise when earwax builds up and becomes hard. This can lead to:

• Impaired hearing: A clogged ear can muffle sound, reducing your hearing.
• Squeaky hearing aids: Accumulated earwax can interfere with the functioning of hearing aids, resulting in a constant beeping sound.
• Altered perception of sound: When your ears are blocked, your own voice may sound strange or muffled.

For people with this kind of build-up, it is important to clean their ears regularly. But what is the best way to do this?

Traditional methods: Injection by the general practitioner or visit to the ENT specialist

Many people have their ears cleaned out by their family doctor or go to an ENT doctor to have earwax removed. These methods have their advantages, but also some disadvantages.

Spraying out by the family doctor:

• Advantages:
  • Thorough cleaning: The doctor flushes away earwax with a special syringe, which provides deep cleaning of the ear canal.
  • Professional guidance: The family doctor can immediately respond to any problems and complications.
• Disadvantages:
  • Not always effective: In some cases, blowing out can push wax deeper into the ear canal, making the problem worse.
  • Uncomfortable: Spraying out can be uncomfortable or even painful for some people.
  • Time-consuming: It requires an appointment at the doctor’s office and often long waits.

Visit to the ENT doctor:

• Advantages:
  • Specialist care: The ENT doctor has specialized equipment and knowledge to treat complex cases of earwax accumulation.
  • Diagnostics: The doctor can immediately determine if there are other causes for hearing problems, such as infections or other ear problems.
• Disadvantages:
  • High cost: Visiting a specialist can be pricey, especially if there is no referral from the family doctor.
  • Not always necessary: For simple cases of earwax accumulation, a visit to the ENT doctor is often not necessary.
  • Time investment: It takes time to make an appointment and wait for a consultation.

While these traditional methods have their place, they don’t always offer the flexibility or convenience many people are looking for. This is where the Bebird M9 Pro comes in.
