The aim of the study was to obtain data on the dynamic strength of both intact and prepared premolars for partial veneer crowns. Cyclic loading was performed in a modified Amslers high-frequency pulsator with varying force (between 400 and 1400 N). The greatest dynamic strength was exhibited by the intact samples. The greater the load the fewer the cycles necessary to fracture the tooth. A statically significant difference was found (P < 0.05) between the magnitude of cyclic loads and the different types of specimens tested.
