Microsuction is widely regarded as the gold standard for cerumen management, offering superior safety and visualization compared to ear syringing. However, the safety of the procedure depends heavily on one critical variable: Choosing the correct suction cannula gauge.

Using a tube that is too narrow for impacted wax leads to constant clogging and prolonged procedure times. Conversely, using a tube that is too wide near the tympanic membrane increases the risk of noise trauma and accidental adhesion.
