Earigator: The Safest, Most Effective Solution for Earwax Removal

Tens of thousands of patients in the US and across the globe are already enjoying the highly effective and pain-free earwax removal technology of Earigator.

Designed by an otologist (MD specializing in ears), Earigator combines the functions of an otoscope and irrigation system into a single unit, leading to the world’s most advanced solution for cerumen control. In fact, many of our patients already enjoy the soothing feeling of warm water massaging their ear canal as well as the lack of lingering pain that sometimes follows the use of traditional methods.

Earigator features LED illumination along with magnification, which gives your earwax removal specialist a better view of what’s going on inside your ear canal, facilitating the targeted removal of earwax.

With self-contained temperature control, Earigator maintains the water used during the process at a comfortable level, eliminating caloric or vertigo side effects while pressure regulation allows for the safe removal of impacted earwax without the risk of damage to your eardrum.

Because earwax removal takes as little as three to five minutes for each ear, Earigator motivates those who wear hearing aids, use earplugs, or frequently struggle with impacted earwax to schedule regular earwax removal appointments that head off the aching, stuffiness, muted sound, and tinnitus that come from earwax buildup before they start.

The Earigator system is our go-to earwax removal option at both of the Jacobs Audiology hearing care centers in Bowie, MD and Southern Maryland, allowing our professionals to provide our patients with the world’s easiest, safest, most effective, and most comfortable earwax removal available.
