It is eminent that the epidemiological patterns of dengue are threatening for both the global economy and human health. The experts in the field are always in search to have better mathematician models in order to understand the transmission dynamics of epidemics models and to suggest possible control or the minimization of the infection from the community. In this research, we construct a new fractional-order system for dengue infection with carrier and partially immune classes to visualize the intricate dynamics of dengue. By using the basics of fractional theory, we determine the fundamental results of the proposed fractional-order dengue model. We obtain the basic reproduction number $R_0$ by next generation method and present the results based on it. The stability results are established for the infection-free state of the system. Moreover, sensitivity of $R_0$ is analyzed through partial rank correlation coefficient(PRCC) method to show the importance of different parameters in $R_0$. The influence of different input factors is shown on the output of basic reproduction number $R_0$ numerically. Our result showed that the threshold parameter $R_0$ can be decreased by increasing vaccination and treatment in the system. Finally, we illustrate the solution of the suggested dengue system through a numerical scheme to notice the influence of the fractional-order $\vartheta$ on the system. We observed that the fractional-order dynamics can explain the complex system of dengue infection more precisely and accurately rather than the integer-order dynamics. In addition, we noticed that the index of memory and biting rate of vector can play a significant part in the prevention of the infection.
