I have a bridge and had the tooth right next to it extracted 6 days ago. i am now experiencing excruciating pain, i had no pain before the extraction. is it normal or is it that the bridge has been shifted and the teeth below are exposed?

Extractions: 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.
