      The process of making the molds I'd imagine.

      It's fine.

      I would imagine that in order to get an impression of your ear canal you have to squeeze in some kind of paste that will harden somewhat to the shape of your ear canal.
      It seems like there is an opportunity for materials to get close to the ear drum, potentially touching it, and maybe damaging it.
      Whatever results from that is anyone's guess, but we know that ear wax can already cause T, as well as anything in contact with the drum (hair, etc). So it could be T, hearing loss, pain, etc... some of which may be permanent, as we all know too well.

      In rare cases I'd imagine the mold can totally seal me cause barotrauma on extraction.


      I'd assume this is exceptionally rare and still think my customs are one of the best purchases I've made in my life, albeit too late

      I had it done and had no problems at all. The mold doesn't go that deep, about as deep the plug will go
