We don't know what kind of partials you have. I might look at them and say, "These are great partials and you ought to be glad you have such a good dentist." Then again, I might say, "My GOD, where did you get these pieces of junk? Were you the first patient this dentist ever saw?" So, we can't say if there is better technology for you than what you have.
Practice, practice, practice. If you got an artificial leg, they would send you for rehabilitative therapy for 4 to 6 weeks, so lets allow at least that amount of time to get used to artificial teeth. You're using a lot of muscles you didn't have to use before and they have to get into shape. You have to learn to chew with a little food on the right and a little food on the left. Just remember that millions of people have made this difficult adjustment and you will, too. Looking back in a couple of years, you won't even remember how difficult it was.

How long have you had them? I honestly had my parital for six months before I could speak without a lisp. It may take some time, but you'll adjust.

partial causes recession to your bone everytime your bite down and this causes slackness or not fitting in place as before. ever though of bridges or surgical implants?

I think they are called a valplast denture, Its supposed to be a flexible denture, so it forms to your mouth alot better.
