Tooth Kitty Logo Design

This webpage showcases the Tooth Kitty logo I created and discusses the design process behind it.

Some of the thinking that went into this logo design:

My inspiration was a cartoon tooth on the side of a local dentist’s office. It had nothing to do with cats, but I was sitting next to my wife at the time, who is a fan of cats and pink. Thus my logo became reminiscent of Hello Kitty.
I created this logo in Adobe Illustrator, making extensive use of the reflect tool. The inside of the ears is a path offset from the edges of the ears, with the point rounded.
I use white for the tooth color. Pink both appeals to my wife and is anatomically correct for cat ears and noses. I used rounded lines for a pleasant, cartoony feel.
This logo would be suitable for a pediatric dentist that is female or targets a female audience. The logo could help little girls feel more comfortable at the dentist's office.
This logo was paired with the Comfortaa font, which mimics the rounded lines of the logo. It has a cartoony feel, but is more serious and stylish than Comic Sans.
