Widex Allure Now Available in Glendora, Professional Fittings by Dr. Ivory
by Dr. Kevin Ivory
Glendora Hearing Aids & Audiology now offers advanced Widex Allure hearing aids with Dr. Ivory's expert fitting and ListeningBrain® treatment program.
At Glendora Hearing Aids & Audiology, we're excited to announce that we now offer the brand-new Widex Allure hearing aids. As an independent practice led by Dr. Kevin Ivory, we pride ourselves on providing our patients with the most advanced hearing technology available. The Widex Allure represents a significant advancement in hearing aid technology, offering better speech understanding while maintaining natural sound quality.
The Widex Allure is built on an entirely new platform featuring the powerful W1 chip. This new processor delivers 4 times faster processing speeds and 4 times more memory than previous Widex models. This increase in power allows for more sophisticated sound processing that can better separate speech from background noise while maintaining the natural sound quality that Widex is known for.
What makes the Allure special is its ability to deliver what Widex calls "Precision Hearing Technology." This approach balances clear speech understanding with environmental awareness, creating a more natural listening experience even in challenging environments.
One of the most impressive features of the Allure is Speech Enhancer Pro. This advanced technology uses a 52-band spectral analysis system that provides detailed control over speech and noise. The system identifies speech and noise in your environment and makes adjustments in real-time to optimize your hearing experience.
In clinical studies, 92% of listeners preferred Speech Enhancer Pro in noisy situations, with 96% reporting less noise annoyance across various listening environments. For our Glendora patients who struggle with hearing in local restaurants like Mimi's Cafe or Domenico's, or during community events at the Glendora Village, this technology offers a noticeable improvement.
Building on Widex's PureSound processing, the Allure continues to use ZeroDelay technology that processes sound in just 0.5 milliseconds. This fast processing ensures you hear sound naturally without the distortion sometimes found in other hearing aids.
The combination of PureSound and the new advanced features means you get natural sound quality along with improved speech understanding in noise. In Widex testing, the Allure PureSound provided better speech intelligibility compared to previous models.
Feedback (whistling sounds) has always been a challenge with hearing aids, particularly with open fittings that allow for a more natural sound. The Widex Allure features a redesigned feedback management system that uses adaptive frequency shifting technology to prevent feedback without compromising sound quality.
This system continuously adjusts in real-time to ensure you never experience uncomfortable whistling while maintaining good sound quality. This makes the Allure suitable for music lovers and audiophiles who want to preserve the richness and detail of musical sounds.
The Widex Allure offers extensive connectivity options to enhance your listening experience:
Battery life is impressive, with up to 25 hours of usage on a single charge, including up to 7 hours of streaming. The Allure comes with two charger options: a Standard Desktop Charger and a Charge N Clean system that not only charges your hearing aids but also dries and sanitizes them.
The redesigned Widex Allure App provides an intuitive and customizable experience that makes controlling your hearing aids simpler than ever. The app includes:
The AI features in the app can make sound recommendations based on other users' preferences in similar environments, or you can create personal sound settings for specific situations you frequently encounter.
The Widex Allure is available as a rechargeable receiver-in-canal (RIC) device in three technology levels (440, 330, and 220) to suit different hearing needs and budgets. It comes in 10 color options, including Tech Black, Titanium Grey, Silver Grey, Dark Cherry, Chestnut Brown, Autumn Beige, Golden Brown, Honey Blonde, Rose Gold, and Pearl White.
We offer several financing options to make investment in your hearing health manageable, including 12-month interest-free payment plans. We also work with most major insurance providers and can check your benefits to determine coverage.
At Glendora Hearing Aids & Audiology, Dr. Kevin Ivory ensures that every patient receives the full benefit of their hearing technology through best practices in hearing aid fitting, including Real Ear Measurements (REM).
Real Ear Measurements are the gold standard for verifying hearing aid performance. This process involves placing a thin probe microphone in your ear canal alongside your hearing aid to measure the exact sound levels you receive while listening to various speech samples. Dr. Ivory can then precisely adjust the sound levels to match target amplification levels based on your specific hearing loss.
Without performing Real Ear Measurements, fitting a hearing aid involves guesswork. As Dr. Ivory explains, "It might be comparable to getting fit with a pair of prescription glasses, but the optometrist 'guessed' the prescription of your vision and crafted the frames based on that 'guess.'"
Dr. Ivory is among less than 30% of hearing care providers who routinely use Real Ear Measurements when programming hearing aids. This commitment to evidence-based care ensures you receive the maximum benefit from your Widex Allure hearing aids.
What truly sets our practice apart is Dr. Ivory's exclusive ListeningBrain® Treatment Program. After spending more than a decade testing and treating thousands of patients, Dr. Ivory has identified the three most critical elements of success in a hearing treatment program, resulting in better than 98% patient satisfaction.
When fitting the Widex Allure, we don't just program the hearing aids and send you on your way. Instead, we use a brain re-training process that gradually increases sound levels over time, allowing your brain to adapt to hearing sounds it may not have processed in years.
As one Glendora resident shared:
"I'd tried hearing aids before from a big box store and could never get used to them. With Dr. Ivory's ListeningBrain process and the new Widex Allure, I'm finally wearing my hearing aids all day. I can enjoy conversations at the Glendora Country Club again without straining to hear."
We understand that convenience is important to our Glendora community. That's why we offer telehealth options with the Widex Allure. Through the Widex app, we can remotely adjust your hearing aids without you needing to come into our office.
This is particularly valuable for our patients who:
A quick video call with Dr. Ivory allows for real-time adjustments to your Widex Allure settings, ensuring you're always hearing your best without the need for frequent in-office visits.
As an independent practice, Dr. Ivory has the freedom to select the best hearing aid technology for each patient's individual needs. We offer the Widex Allure because it represents a significant advancement in hearing technology that can benefit many of our patients.
The combination of Widex Allure's advanced features and Dr. Ivory's expertise in fitting and programming creates an excellent hearing experience. Here's what makes this combination special:
The Widex Allure is suitable for people with mild to severe hearing loss who want a natural listening experience with improved speech clarity in noise. It's particularly well-suited for:
