Lenire

Doctors Brian J. Fligor, PhD, PASC, and Miles Sabine, AuD, audiologists at Tobias & Battite Hearing Wellness, are excited to be part of a very small group of U.S. providers qualified to offer Lenire

As a tinnitus center of excellence, we are the only provider in the New England region to offer Lenire, a non-surgical, non-invasive, at-home treatment device to help you get relief from chronic tinnitus.

Lenire is the first device of its kind to receive a grant of approval from the FDA to treat tinnitus. This follows a large-scale clinical trial designed to meet the FDA’s requirements during which 83% of patients recommended Lenire for the treatment of tinnitus. The large-scale trial’s results were consistent with real-world evidence from 204 patients*. Additionally, the innovative approach of Lenire in treating tinnitushas been featured on Good Morning America, highlighting its significance and effectiveness.

More than 25 million people in the U.S. are affected by tinnitus — a ringing, buzzing, or humming sound only they can hear.

For some, it’s benign, but for many, it’s a frustrating and debilitating chronic condition.

Lenire is a treatment device proven to reduce the severity of tinnitus. In fact, Lenire is the first medical device of its kind granted approval for the treatment of tinnitus by the FDA.

And with a little help from us, you can use the device from the comfort of home to stop focusing on tinnitus and start focusing on the things that matter most to you.

How Does Lenire Work?

You use three simple, convenient components:

• Wireless Bluetooth headphones pair with Lenire’s custom sounds to deliver audio to the part of the brain that processes sound.
• A Tonguetip, a device that sits comfortably in your mouth, sends mild pulses to the surface of your tongue to activate nerves.
• A lightweight, portable handheld controller allows you to control the sound volume and level of tongue stimulation.

Lenire plays sounds from the headphones while providing gentle pulses to your tongue. You control the sound volume and tongue stimulation with the handheld controller.

The sounds and pulses work together to retrain your brain. It’s a process called bimodal neuromodulation, and it helps you pay less attention to your tinnitus.

The result? Tinnitus has less impact on your day-to-day life — clinical trials have demonstrated that 71% of patients see significant improvement over a 12-week period from starting treatment with Lenire.

Do I Need a Tinnitus Evaluation to Use Lenire?

Yes, a comprehensive tinnitus assessment is the only way to learn about your unique tinnitus, how it impacts your life, and whether Lenire can help.

Because tinnitus and hearing are so closely linked, your assessment includes a hearing evaluation as well.

The complete Lenire treatment plan includes:

• Hearing and tinnitus assessments
• Custom Lenire device setup and fitting
• A tailored treatment plan created by us
• Follow-up patient-progress assessments
• Advice for ongoing use at home

Results are different from person to person, but follow-up assessments happen within weeks, not months. That way, your treatment plan can be adjusted as soon as possible to maximize the benefits.
