HELPING THEM SOAR
WIDEX PEDIATRICS
SOUND LIKE NO OTHER
PUTTING YOUR CHILD’S HEARING FIRST
Your child’s hearing comes first. To ensure this, we focus on what we do best: designing incredibly durable, consistently reliable hearing technology for active young bodies. Children learn to communicate by imitating the sounds they hear. And for children with a hearing loss, it is vital that they are given access to as many sounds as possible so they don’t miss out on the speech and language around them.
That’s where Widex hearing aids for children come in. We push past traditional boundaries. Just like kids do. Our hearing aids are designed to not just sound great — but to adjust to the different listening environments children are exposed to every day. You can rest assured that your child will be free to enjoy our superior sound quality because Widex hearing aids are comfortable to wear the whole day. ALL SO THAT YOUR CHILD CAN SOAR.

WHY WIDEX FOR YOUR CHILD?
SUPERIOR SOUND QUALITY The innovative chip technology in Widex hearing aids for children strives to provide pure and clean sound in every hearing aid. With it, your child can enjoy the most accurate listening experience, even in difficult situations.
Widex technology also enables your child to pick up important speech cues without adjusting the volume. Missing these cues can lead to frustration, difficulty in school, and speech delays. Widex hearing aids automatically make the necessary adjustments so that your child has consistent access to soft speech sounds and won’t miss a thing.
HEAR BETTER IN NOISE
BETTER CONCENTRATION
Children are often in noisy situations — from socializing with family, to playing with friends, and at school. This makes it a challenge to hear speech. Widex hearing aids reduce background noise to give your child better understanding of speech. The hearing aids also take into account your child’s individual hearing loss, constantly analyzing the sound situation and then adjusting themselves. Your child can concentrate on sounds to the left, right, front, and behind, staying safer and better connected to his/her surroundings.
In the classroom, it can be hard to hear teachers when there is a lot of background noise, even with hearing aids. An FM wireless system can help. Here’s how it works: your child’s teacher wears an FM transmitter which wirelessly connects to the Widex FM+DEX. The FM+DEX sends a wireless signal to your child’s hearing aids so he/she can hear the teacher’s words directly in his/her ears. FM systems can also be used at home in place of headphones, as they are perfectly safe and very easy to use.
HEAR SOFT SOUNDS It can be hard to hear high pitched sounds — like children’s voices, birds singing, and music. Our hearing aids provide better access to soft sounds, and can even shift these sounds to an area of better hearing if needed. 4

CONNECTIVITY
according to their needs in specific situations like the classroom or cafeteria. Using real-time machine learning, My Sound offers a personalized and smart function to conveniently make quick sound changes to their hearing aids — your child can simply choose which of two scenarios sounds best and refine any situation. The more times he/she does it, the more Widex MOMENT learns about how your child wants to hear at any moment.
We know your child is on the move, so we’ve developed unique technology that keeps our hearing aids — and your child — connected to his/ her world.

First, if your child wears two hearing aids, WidexLinkTM allows the left and right aids to communicate with each other constantly, analyzing listening situations, applying settings appropriate to your child’s needs, and responding to changes in the environment based on his/her habits.
2
Next, our TRI-LINKTM technology instantly connects your child’s hearing aids to T-coils, Bluetooth devices, and the complete collection of Widex direct 2.4 GHz streaming solutions and wireless accessories. These devices enable our superior sound quality to stream directly to your child’s hearing aids, making it easy for him/her to connect to audio equipment, remote controls, TVs, gaming systems, and mobile or landline phones.

Lastly, using the Widex MOMENT app, compatible with 2.4 GHz-enabled Widex MOMENT hearing aids, your child can further individualize their hearing
