No that's not normal. However, a good dentist would have taken it out (you don't want the gum to heal over it), so do you think it might just be the inside of the socket.... it can have a whitish tinge, or even something left over from a topical anesthetic.

They might fall out on there own but I would call the dentist just in case. I could never see if there were any pieces of my teeth left when they pulled it.
