The following are determining factors in whether or not partial dentures are "strong":
1. Bite force of the patient.
2. The type of partial denture: acrylic/plastic vs. metal based
3. The number of molars missing
4. Whether the bite on the remaining teeth are stable and strong.
5. Oral hygiene of the patient.
6. The space remaining to replace the molars in the partial denture.
Multiple factors are involved in determining if the partial dentures are strong.

Partial dentures when cared for properly are strong, and can serve a patient adequately for many years.
Dentures are an option especially if you are missing teeth on both sides. Yes they are strong but if dental implants are an option for you implants are stronger
