Does posterior impaction have the same effect as CCWr?

Just learned from my ortho that I would not be getting CCW rotation, but instead I would be getting differential posterior impaction to fix my anterior open bite. Then there would a combo of upper jaw advancement and lower jaw retraction (lower jaw will also be rotated along the horizontal plane to fix the midline) Of course, my ortho isn't a surgeon, but he seems somewhat blackpilled (even considered ethnicity when talking about advancement of the maxilla)

My question is, will the posterior impaction result in a similar aesthetic result as a counterclockwise rotation? What are the merits of doing one over another?

No, it's the opposite of CCWr.

You have to see what works best for you
There is no one who could answer based on this information
