All-on-Fours clacking when speaking

shazsmiles
I've been wearing all on fours for 11 weeks now and they make a 'clacking' sound when speaking. Words with the letter J or S are very difficult. Sh Ch words or any words that require my jaw to jet forward makes them very loud. It's not only heard by me but by others. My dentist does not want to file down the teeth and close my bite, so what is the answer? I can not/will not continue like this. Is a new set in order? And if so, what needs to be done differently to avoid this happening again?
