Dr. Payten Coker
Dr. Payten Coker was born and raised in the Upstate of South Carolina and is thrilled to be back home serving the community that helped shape her. She attended Clemson University, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences with a minor in Genetics. She earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine from the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston. Following dental school, she completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at the Fayetteville VA Medical Center, where she received additional training in restorative dentistry, dental emergencies, and implant dentistry.
Dr. Coker’s connection to Tylan Creek began long before she joined the team – she was once a patient here herself! Returning to practice at the same office she visited growing up makes being part of the Tylan Creek family especially meaningful.
Outside of the Dental Office

Outside of dentistry, Dr. Coker enjoys spending time with her husband, family, friends, and her dog. She loves traveling, watching sports, staying active, spending time outdoors, and enjoying the small moments life has to offer!
