My name is Dr. Anthony Carbonella and I am here to serve all of your orthodontic needs. I have experience with all aspects of orthodontics, from childhood/phase I treatment, to adolescent and adult orthodontics with braces or clear aligners, to complex orthognathic surgical treatment. I have a passion for working with patients to create beautiful smiles, improve overall health, and elevate confidence for a lifetime.
I grew up in Hamden, CT as the oldest of four boys. After completing my bachelors degree in biology at UCONN Storrs, I attended dental school at the UCONN Health Center in Farmington. On the first day of dental school I happened to notice the student next to me had a picture of a Ford Mustang on his laptop, we started talking about cars, and boom... we became best friends. That student just happened to be Rejuvenate Dental Arts very own Dr. Greg Saam and I'm truly honored to be invited to join him at his practice.
After graduating dental school, I then commissioned as an officer in the US Air Force and completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) residency at Travis AF Base in CA. Here I received cutting-edge training in all of dentistrys specialty areas, and developed an interest in both orthodontics and oral surgery.
After applying my advanced skills as a general dentist for 4 years at McGuire AF Base in NJ, I was selected to attend the militarys prestigious Tri-Service Orthodontic Residency Program (TORP) in Texas. A unique feature of our program is the breadth of the patients we were able to treat, from childhood and adolescent orthodontics, to orthognathics. I became board certified immediately after graduating.
For the next 3 years, Uncle Sam assigned me to Lakenheath Air Force Base in the UK to provide orthodontics for the active duty Airmen and their families stationed there. I was then invited to return to TX as a professor and clinical faculty member in both the Orthodontic and OMFS residency programs. I truly love teaching and believe that the better my patients understand their condition and our treatment plan, the more enjoyable ortho treatment will be!
After 11 years of military service, I am now returning with my growing family to CT where I will be providing your orthodontic treatment at Rejuvenate Dental Arts! I am here to serve you, educate you, and walk with you through your smile transformation journey.

Ellen is amazing. She has vast experience, skills and a wonderful way of dealing with my mouth. While warm, kind and gentle she gets the job done. Thank you, Ellen. See you in next time.

It those situations where I had a dental emergency they were always able to squeeze me in so I saw the doctor same or next day. Always great customer service and they works very well with the dental insurance coverage I have.
