Wearing Hearing Protection is as Important As Brushing Your Teeth and Taking Your Vitamins

When Is Hearing Protection Necessary?

Our audiologists recommend wearing hearing protection when exposed to sound levels exceeding 85 decibels (dB), as it can significantly increase your risk of hearing loss. Not only is the volume of the sounds important, but also the amount of time exposed. As a guide, for each 5 dB increase, the exposure time should be cut in half.

How to Get Fitted For Custom Hearing Protection

We’re Happy to Answer All Your Questions

If you have to raise your voice to be heard over the sound or are struggling to hear what others say to you, you’re probably experiencing a dangerous level of noise. Cover your ears if possible or move out of harm’s way. Some workplaces or areas will notify you if there is a high level of noise. There are also apps that can measure noise levels around you. 

It can vary from situation to situation. Most hearing loss is cumulative, meaning the more time you spend exposed to loud noises, the more damage to your hearing. However, in some cases, one-off extremely high sounds can damage your hearing. The point at which sound begins to be harmful is 85 dB, so wearing protection is crucial in these situations.

You’ll be surprised at how loud some areas and sounds are, exceeding the 85 dB limit. Driving on the highway, working at or near a construction site or using home appliances, such as lawnmowers and chainsaws, can affect your hearing. Loud music, particularly at concerts, can also exceed the 85dB limit. We recommend wearing hearing protection during situations where you know decibel levels are uncomfortable for you.

When the noise is hurting you, it means it is damaging to your hearing, so move away from the noise immediately. If you notice that pain persists, contact your medical practitioner or visit Toronto Family Hearing immediately.
