Minimally Invasive Surgically Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion With Limited Approach Under Sedation: A Report of 283 Consecutive Cases

The new technique that we report seeks to combine both aspects and allows for rapid intervention with local anesthesia plus sedation and a minimal approach with a total liberation of the maxillary resistances (piriform aperture pillars, zygomatic buttresses, midpalatal suture, and pterygoid junctions). The minimal approach and incision used in the technique guarantee vascular support to the maxilla via the vestibular corridors.
