Size determination
There are 8 different sizes of ProPlugs.
For the very smallest ears we have size XXS and for the biggest ears the XXL. If you buy the earplugs online you must make an estimate of the size you need. By far the most earplugs we sell have the size M (normal ear size, slightly on the small side) or L (normal ear size, something on the large side). If you have larger or smaller ears, adjust the size accordingly.
How do you enter the earplugs?
1) You take the ear plug with the fin / fin up between your thumb and forefinger. The fingertip of the index finger lies against the cavity of the calyx / bowl.
2) Place both Proplugs in each ear. On each Proplugs is indicated with L or R for which ear it is suitable. Press the Proplugs well against the skin, including the fin under the cartilage
3) The Humm test now follows. With closed mouth, persistent humming from the throat, check whether or not the hearing makes a significant difference between left and right. The ear with the Proplugs makes the sound of the humm sound louder. This is because the humming, as it were, rebounds against the eardrum. If there is no difference at all, you need a different size earplug. You can still come by with the earplugs and we will be happy to help you.
Doc's Proplugs must be 'snug' around and as a seal against the skin of the inner auricle, although they will not hear the Proplugs outside the ear canal!
How a proplugs is supposed to be displayed shows the first one below, the right picture shows a proplug that is not on the skin and of which the fin / fin is incorrect. The self-insertion will some practice but after a few times it gets used quickly.
