If you don't have time to watch, the most dramatic expansion is at 1:05:32

This may remove the need for the smaller segmental leforts which carry more root damage/tooth vitality risk.

Unfortunatey for males they have difficult expanding the maxilla after the age of 25.

what is the difference between what these people are talking about and SARPE?

Practically the biggest difference is cost since it's less invasive. In SARPE you need full anesthesia OR for that lefort 1 cut but for here you just need mini-screws inserted in the palate.

Then there are other small details, in SARPE you only widen below the L1 cut but here it can widen higher up too. But this may be a pro and a con and doesn't appear to be something that can be reliably planned/controlled and you may get uneven widening above as your fused sutures are not all the same strength.

It works quite fine. Treating males over 20 can be done by adding some surgical manoeuvres (we could call it a minimally invasive SARPE).

And, as you said, it saves costs, both financial and biological costs.
