Earwax Removal and Earigator Ear Cleaning in Yorktown, IN
Blocked, muffled, or itchy ears? Our audiologists remove earwax gently and safely using the Earigator, which cleans the ear canal with a soft stream of body-temperature water.

Did you know?
Earwax normally works its way out of the ear on its own.
A little wax is healthy. It protects your ears, and you usually only need help with earwax when it builds up, causes symptoms, or gets in the way of an ear exam.

Signs You May Need Earwax Removal
Earwax buildup can affect the way your ears feel and how clearly you hear. Signs worth checking include:
Wax can interfere with your hearing aids, too. Regular wax checks and daily device cleaning can help keep them working well and may prevent avoidable hearing aid repairs.
Sudden hearing loss needs immediate medical attention, even if your ear just feels blocked. Please see a doctor promptly if you have ear pain with a fever, drainage, or bleeding. If you’ve had ear surgery, ear tubes, or a perforated eardrum, see your doctor before arranging earwax removal and let our team know about your history.
If ringing continues after wax is removed, we can discuss a tinnitus evaluation and the next steps for your care.
What can I expect during a professional earwax removal session?
Your comfort and safety are our priority. We’ll talk about your symptoms, examine your ears, and use a video ear exam to show you any buildup. If removal is appropriate, your audiologist will explain the recommended method and guide you through it. Afterward, we’ll check your ears again and share advice for home care. The entire process is conducted with great care by our trained audiologists.
