OtoSet® Ear Cleaning System by SafKan Health
According to the American Academy of Otolaryngology, excessive earwax is present in over 35 million Americans including 1 in 10 children, 1 in 20 adults, and more than one-third of the senior population. Excessive or impacted earwax is very common and can cause hearing loss, tinnitus, vertigo, pain, and coughing. To address the need for a safer and more effective solution to treating impacted earwax, SafKan Health developed the first automated and FDA cleared ear cleaning device called OtoSet®.
How OtoSet® Works
In a quick cleaning cycle, liquid flow is directed from solution containers through disposable ear tips and towards the walls of the ear canals to break down earwax. Continuous micro-suction draws the earwax and liquid back through the ear tips and into disposable waste containers for an easy, safe, effective, and mess-free procedure.

Benefits include:
- Better hearing. Earwax is one of the most common reasons for hearing aid frustration and earwax tends to become harder and less mobile as you get older which can create hearing loss and prevent a full exam of the ear.
- Clinically proven. OtoSet® is the first FDA cleared ear cleaning device to remove mild to severe earwax impactions quickly and safely.
- Automation. OtoSet® combines and controls the two most popular methods of earwax removal, irrigation and mico-suction.
- Greater access. Allows providers to reduce referrals to otolaryngologists, creating further trust with patients and better service.
“Excessive earwax is one of the main causes of damage to hearing aids. Access to care for earwax management can be difficult when so many patients have to be referred out to specialists. OtoSet enables more patients to be treated at the initial point of care,” said Sahil Diwan, SafKan Health’s Co-Founder & CEO. “We’re excited to partner with Beltone and work together to provide patients with the best hearing care.”
“We’re happy to be able to expand Beltone’s ear cleaning services to patients through our partnership with OtoSet by SafKan Health as another solution to treating excessive earwax,” said Mike Halloran, President of Beltone. “We …….
