Exploratory Study of Hybrid Telepractice and In-Person Treatment of Compensatory Articulation Errors in Cleft Palate

Abstract

A participant with cleft palate and compensatory articulation errors underwent 75 weeks of treatment using a hybrid telepractice and in-person treatment model. This model improved articulation skills during the study period and offers a starting point for continued exploration of telepractice for the treatment of compensatory articulation errors in cleft palate.
