Dr. Maria Cristina R. Landayan, DDS

Dental care in Watsonville’s central area includes a practice on Nielson Street. Dr. Maria Cristina R. Landayan, DDS offers general and preventive dentistry, from routine cleanings to fillings and extractions. The office handles both adult and pediatric patients, making it a practical option for families who prefer keeping their dental visits under one roof. Preventive services like sealants and fluoride treatments are part of the standard care, while restorative work—crowns, bridges, or dentures—addresses more involved needs.

The address at 45 Nielson St places it within easy reach of downtown Watsonville, a few blocks from the civic plaza and local schools. This stretch of Nielson is lined with small businesses and professional offices, so parking tends to follow the area’s usual rhythm. While the practice doesn’t advertise specialty procedures like orthodontics or oral surgery, its focus remains on core dental health—exams, X-rays, and basic periodontal care. Patients with questions about insurance or specific treatments would do well to call ahead; the front desk fields those details over the phone.

Contacting the office directly is simplest by phone at (831) 761-7588, whether to schedule a first visit or confirm an existing appointment. For those mapping the route, the directions show the entrance mid-block, between a tax service and a small retail shop. Watsonville’s grid layout keeps navigation uncomplicated, but checking the map beforehand can save a minute or two.
