Prevent leakage with a seal only available in custom units. No swim mold can provide a 100% water-tight seal. However, a properly fitted mold will prevent most moisture from entering the ear. They are recommended by swimming instructors and doctors for persons requiring protection of the outer ear.

The sleeping plug is a solid plug, but with the outer surface of the mold phantomed (scooped out) for comfort when lying on the ear.

Solid Hearing Protection earplugs, Swim Plugs, & Sleep Plugs if a dealer is not listed in your area:
1. Call any local hearing specialist in your area that sells hearing aids, to have impressions taken of your ears. All hearing aid dealers can take ear impressions. Call around to compare prices and find out how much this will cost.

The finished impressions need to meet the following criteria:

- The impression fills the ear cavity, including the tragus, concha and anti-helix
3. The impressions should be given to you in a small cardboard box. Write your name and phone number inside the box flap.
