METHOD FOR CUSTOMIZING AN IN-EAR DEVICE

摘要

A method for customizing an in ear device to an individual's ear, comprising providing an in ear device (10) having an expandable region (16). A settable compound (26) is injected into the expandable region (16) of the in ear device (10). The in ear device (10) with the settable compound (26) in a non-set state is inserted into a desired position in the ear of the individual such that the in-ear device (10) conforms to the shape of the ear. The in ear device (10) is removed from the ear only once the settable compound (26) has substantially solidified.
