SoundBite™ - Treatment for Single Sided Deafness and Sudden hearing Loss

What Is SoundBite™?

The SoundBite Hearing System is the world's first non-surgical and removable hearing solution to use the well-established principle of bone conduction to imperceptibly transmit sound via the teeth. It is intended to help patients who suffer from single sided deafness or Conductive Hearing Loss rejoin the conversation of life.

Will SoundBite™ Work for Me?

If you are one of the millions of people who are essentially deaf in one ear, a condition sometimes called single sided deafness, you no longer need to suffer in silence. Maybe you thought there was not a good treatment option for you, or maybe you are considering a surgically implanted hearing device. If you have grown tired of missing out on conversations in noisy rooms, having to find the right seat at a meeting, or being unable to tell where a car is coming from as you walk across a street or parking lot, SoundBite™ may be the ideal solution for you.

The SoundBite™ Difference

In a clinical trial:

95% of SoundBite patients would recommend it to a friend who also had single sided deafness.

Single Sided Deafness (SSD) and sudden hearing loss are debilitating conditions that millions of patients suffer from and more and more people acquire each year. Hearing aids, which are amplification devices that work by simply “turning up the volume,” are medically inappropriate for the treatment of SSD because SSD sufferers have one cochlea that is virtually non-functional and thus it does not capture sound even when amplified by a hearing aid. Therefore, the traditional treatment approach for SSD sufferers has been a surgically implanted prosthetic device or “bone anchored implant,” which replaces the function of the impaired ear by using a well-established principle called bone conduction to re-route sound through the skull bones to the better ear’s functional cochlea.

Today the SoundBite prosthetic device makes innovative use of this well-established principle of bone conduction to eliminate the need for an invasive surgery and implant altogether by imperceptibly transmitting sound via the teeth, through bone, and on to the better ear. As such, SoundBite delivers clear, natural, high quality sound directly to the functioning cochlea thereby replacing the function of the impaired ear.
