Well don't worry about it. You will get used to it. It will snap into place and it will be snug. Over time it probably will loosen up but you should be able to have it adjusted occasionally, and replaced when it just wears out. You could consider the much more expensive alternative, a fixed bridge. Then you probably wouldn't have any trouble with it for many many years to come, if ever.
Keep in mind, having a skilled dentist doing the prep and a skilled lab making the partial or bridge has a lot to do with things working out right. As a dental assistant I am really picky and will gripe immediately if something's not right, but then I know how it should be done <smile>
As for full dentures, well my mom had to get full dentures at 16 years old and her profession, when she was in her 20's, was being a drummer. Being the only girl in the band most times she would wind up having to sing, even though she wasn't much of a vocalist. No one ever knew she had fake-a-mundo fangs and she never wound up spitting them out across the dance floor! LOL
As for knowing a lot of things, well, you could say I'm a jack-of-all-trades but a master of none. I know just enough to get me in trouble sometimes!
On occasion I will go ahead and do some research when a question someone asks peaks my interest. That way I wind up being able to answer and I learn something while doing it.
