Identity · Decision room

Brand is still an open decision

Nuvana is a temporary working label only. Investors should treat naming, domain, and trademark clearance as active diligence — not a finished brand launch.

Prefer premium + calm + health-oriented names that stay unmistakably dental, without locking the business into “holistic” or pure cosmetic positioning.

Rank 1

Oravelle

Dental + Wellness

challenger

Strongest stylistic direction in the naming round so far.

Pros

+ Premium, sophisticated, expandable
+ “Ora” suggests oral without being literal
+ Supports multi-location / wellness programs later

Cons / risks

− Needs exact .com + trademark verification
− Less immediately warm than lifestyle names

Rank 2

Oralume

Whole Health Dentistry

challenger

Health-forward alternative if Oravelle feels too formal.

Pros

+ Modern and meaningful
+ Light / clarity metaphor fits wellness
+ Highly brandable as a wordmark

Cons / risks

− Needs clearance; inventiveness can slow recall

Working label — not final

Nuvana Dental

Dentistry for your whole health

working

Current project label for this site. Not final.

Pros

+ Warm, spa-like, approachable
+ Feels like a healthcare brand, not a procedure shop
+ Does not lock into “holistic-only” positioning

Cons / risks

− Florida entities already use Nuvana in adjacent healthcare
− Federal mark history exists in supplements (cancelled — still diligence)
− Temporary only until clearance + challenge round completes

Rank 4

Diamond Dental Wellness

Marketable, cosmetic-leaning

challenger

Keep only as a foil — not preferred for this thesis.

Pros

+ Memorable; easy consumer read

Cons / risks

− Reads veneers/cosmetic more than airway/sleep/prevention
− May age poorly if wellness depth becomes the moat

Eliminated

Clearance checklist

☐ Exact .com availability (search ≠ registration proof)
☐ USPTO search for confusingly similar marks
☐ Florida entity / common-law dental conflicts
☐ Orlando local competitor name collisions
☐ Trademark counsel before capital commitment

Logo directions under review

These are exploration artifacts, shown in greyscale. Color systems and final marks stay undecided.

Option A — Organic & Modern

Lotus / tooth mark with serif wordmark. Spa-like, health-forward.

Calm · Modern · Trusted · Elevated

Option B — Nature & Fluidity

Wave / leaf mark. More abstract; strong for multi-service expansion.

Nature · Science · Wellness · Precision

Option C — Elegant & Timeless

Monogram in a circle. Formal luxury; less “wellness lifestyle.”

Elegant · Health-focused · Timeless · Luxury
