The Sentio 1 Mini is designed with a focus on user comfort and ease of use. The device’s design and slim profile make it 26% lighter than an alternative1. It gives access to a 360-degree sound experience and offers the widest bandwidth of 9.5kHz.
Sentio Ti is a SuperPowerful implant developed to support patient’s progressive hearing loss, without the need for additional surgeries. Sentio Ti is designed and verified for a higher maximum force output, so that patients can rely on its ability to handle more powerful sound processors2. From a surgeon’s perspective, the implant is designed for surgical flexibility, ensuring a straightforward procedure.
Sentio System is indicated for candidates aged 12 and older who have been diagnosed with conductive hearing loss, mixed hearing loss, or single-sided deafness.
