FUTURE SHOP CORRECTION NOTICE Ears NOISE INDUCED HEARING LOSS (NIHL) There are several things that determine whether or not a sound can damage your hearing, including the loudness of the sound and the duration of exposure. Hearing loss can occur as a result of a one-time exposure to a loud sound, or repeated exposure to loud sounds. However, some individuals will be more suspectible to NIHL and there is really no way to tell who these individuals are: Sounds louder than 80 decibels (dB) are considered dangerously loud and could potentially cause a NIHL. Below is a list of the dB level of some sounds that may be encountered during the course of a day. 60 db Average conversation level 70 dB Vacuum cleaner 80 dB Alarm Clock 90 dB Lawnmower 100 db Chain saw 110 dB Rock Music 120 dB Jet during take-off 130 dB Jackhammer 140 dB Firearms At the Georgetown Hearing Clinic we specialize in custom fitted hearing protection.
