Parkdale Dental CenterLogo Design Contest

We are a dental office in Stevens Point, Wisconsin (central Wisconsin), offering a full range of preventive, restorative, and cosmetic dental services for patients of all ages.

We would like to stick within the blue or green families for our primary color. The city of Stevens Point has a high school with colors red, black, and white. The college in town has the colors blue and yellow. Either of those options could be explored, though we want to avoid a bright or true red color as it has allusions to blood, which isn't great in the dental field. We would like to have one primary color with at least one secondary or accent color, potentially up to three or four colors at most.

We are located in an area dominated by farmland, but our office has beautiful trees and a small pond next to it. Natural elements to explore are cattails, the pond, trees, reeds, birds, and farmland. Our owner tends to like logos where visual elements are incorporated into the name, as opposed to separate icons above or to the left of the name — however, we're open to any concepts. We would like to convey a tone of professionalism and avoid any logos that are too playful or kid-oriented. We ARE NOT interested in designs that have realistic tooth shapes — abstract designs can work, but we tend to like natural images or perhaps smile shapes instead of teeth. Please also understand that this logo will need to appear on small print jobs and embroidered shirts, so the level of detail cannot be too fine.
