Hearing aid correction bandwidth


I notice when listening to a frequency sweep recording that I really can't hear anything above 10khz.  I also have a sharp 10 dB divot in my hearing at about 3,900 hz. Tinnitus in one ear, too.
Watching a few dozen YouTubes, I find the hearing aid companies appear to only measure and correct your hearing hearing between 250hz and 8khz.
So is there any help to get that top octave back?

@millercarbonand the tinnitus is almost gone. So probably mine are in better shape than yours, hearing-wise.

So what’s the tinnitus secret?
There is a saying dougthebiker, don't put legs on a snake. Same exact thing happens with my 63 year old ears. Not that low, closer to 15kHz, and the tinnitus is almost gone. So probably mine are in better shape than yours, hearing-wise.

Listening-wise however, it is easy to hear all the little differences between things like elevating cables, warming up, demagnetizing, and many other things that a whole bunch of audiophiles are utterly unable to hear at all. There's people here deaf to directionality. These are the ones who should be looking into hearing aids. Not me. Probably not you either.  

But they don't. Because audiophiles break down into two camps- those who listen and hear, and those who look and measure. As long as you focus on measuring your hearing you will always come up short. What a waste. Because you will never, ever, be able to hear those high frequencies. For the simple reason that the more the hearing aid amplifies to where you can hear it, the more you are hearing the hearing aid and not your system. Not your music.

Hopefully you are smart enough to see where this is going. You either enjoy the system you have with the hearing God gave you, or else you might as well ditch it altogether for headphones and a parametric equalizer.
For what purpose?
The continuity beep on my Fluke is getting a little faint. That's all I got.
Human voice is somewhere up to 8Khz.

My hearing is diagnosed good up to 7Khz and RAGING tinnitus. I hear music detail just as good as I did 20 years ago. Actually, better now with a good turntable.

Everyone is different but, can you really not hear those upper notes in your favorite music? We don't listen to test records. I have a few of those test LP's. It definitely confirms my test results when a 8Khz tone is played.

That said, anything I listen to sounds the same(actually better) from 40+ years ago-to my ears.
