INTRODUCTION

An ear curette, also known as an ear pick, ear spoon, or ear scoop, is a long, slender, cylindrical instrument used to clean wax out of the ear canal. The tool itself has been around for centuries, but it has evolved quite a bit in that time. Traditionally, ear curettes were made from bone, bamboo, or even gold and silver. Today, they are more commonly made from either stainless steel, which can be sterilized, or plastic, which is disposable. Severe infection can be caused by a dirty curette.

The "ladle" type is the traditional tip, and is still the most popular. Shaped like a tiny spoon, this tip is usually effective at removing both wet and dry ear wax, and is generally considered the easiest to use.

The loop tip serves as a trap for the wax, making it easier to actually pull the wax from the ear. It is not, however, effective for wet ear wax, which the loops cannot grab.

Although it is possible to remove ear wax at home, most G.P.'s and doctors recommend against it. Ear wax usually works its way out of the ear naturally. It should not be removed unless it is causing pain or hearing loss, in which case the removal should be performed by an ear, nose, and throat specialist.
