When you choose AB, you benefit from world-class reliability. This means less hearing downtime, so you hear your best day-in and day-out without interruption.
There are two important aspects to consider when choosing a cochlear implant – the system itself, and the support you will receive throughout your lifetime.
THE COCHLEAR IMPLANT SYSTEM
The Implant
Implant technology is the most important consideration in a cochlear implant system.
This will determine how much detailed sound information is ultimately delivered to the
hearing nerve.

- Is compatible with future technology – fully upgradeable without the need for additional surgery
- Has the industry’s highest number of independent current sources for precise current steering to improve pitch perception
- Has the industry’s smallest pre-curved array with low-profile, surgery-friendly design for less intrusive implantation
- Causes minimal damage to the cochlea and preserves any remaining hearing
