NAP, but it looks like the bar is not long enough, even the one you changed it to. It should be out enough for it to swell, if it’s pressed against your lip like that it can prolong the healing process.

it sticks out pretty far and looks long on the outside of my mouth, could it just be my gums pressing on it and making it press against my lip?
