Dental Pain: There are a number of possibilities for your pain including infection, inflammation, fracture of the adjacent tooth, dry socket, etc etc. The dentist who extracted the tooth should be seen immediately for a followup to assess healing and other possible causes. Can't accurately diagnose or treat over the internet.

No pain's not normal: Could be infection of extraction site, failure of one of the bridge-supporting teeth, a localized irritation, or one of many other problems. Go back to your Dentist for a reevaluation.
