The SFOA bypasses the Pre- surgical orthodontic phase and directly enters to the skeletal surgical correction phase.

The SFOA uses the Regional Acceleratory Phenomenon and the natural forces from soft tissues to bring down the treatment duration to significantly lesser than that of conventional orthognathic approach
