The system includes Sentio 1 Mini, an external sound processor, and Sentio Ti Implant, placed under the skin. It is the smallest transcutaneous system available to date1.
While Ponto and other percutaneous bone-anchored hearing systems use skin-protruding abutments, the Sentio System provides an alternative keeping the skin intact. The Sentio System offers an additional solution for patients and supports our commitment to "freedom of choice."
“With the launch of Sentio System, we provide best-in-class and the smallest active transcutaneous system. More importantly, Oticon Medical now offers a complete portfolio of bone-anchored hearing systems. This portfolio meets the needs of patients and customers, and fits diverse clinical settings and global reimbursement schemes for the treatment. We strongly believe that offering a broad portfolio is the path to achieving our mission to "Help more people" and give more potential users the quality of life improvements these systems offer”, says René Govaerts, President & General Manager, Oticon Medical.
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.
This launch marks a significant milestone for Oticon Medical, as it continues to deliver the innovative hearing solutions that help people live life to the fullest.
