Its longer than what you would normally wear in it because it has to allow for swelling. Don't worry about your gag reflex. Tongues arent pierced that far back and the bar wont be nearly long enough to trigger it. Go to a reputable piercer and you wont have any problems! They know what they're doing!
The initial tongue stud typically used during piercing ranges from 16mm to 22mm in length. This specific size is selected to accommodate swelling that may occur after the piercing. Your piercer will take your anatomy and comfort into consideration to ensure a proper fit. If you have concerns about your gag reflex, it's advisable to communicate this with your piercer beforehand so they can make adjustments as needed.
Typically, when you first get your tongue pierced, a longer tongue barbell, such as 16mm or 18mm, is used to allow for swelling. After the swelling subsides, you can switch to a shorter barbell of around 12mm. It is important to consult with your piercer for the most appropriate size for your individual anatomy.

This happened to me because when I first got it pierced, I played with it too much. Although it is hard to resist when you first get it done, do not play with it and it will be fine. My crater got so big I have to wear a large ball on the top and a small one down the bottom so it doesnt come through the hole.
Well the only way to put anything into a tongue is to use a needle to pierce the tongue first then put a barbell into the newly pierced hole. (Please quit calling it a tongue ring, it's a barbell and not a ring).
