I am getting a 6 unit front bridge (ceramic)done. I have some issues with the temporary. Can these be fixed in the permanent?

Issues with the temp- 1) It doesn't sit easy in my mouth. Constant attention drawn towards it. Will the permanent feel and fit better? 2) Speech is a little impacted. I am hitting my upper and lower teeth when pronouncing certain words. My dentist has adjusted the temp and it does feel better but still I am not totally comfortable. He says that the issues about the feel and fit will be sorted out with the permanent. Can I go ahead with my final impression?
