Difficult to answer your question without seeing what treatment was rendered. You'll need to consult with the extracting dentist or oral surgeon.

Tnis is an educational site, not a second opinion site. We cannot examine/x-ray the surgical site. Whatnyou are looking out may be a clot, not a tooth root. Return not your treating Dentist or Oral Surgeon for post-surgical care, or seek a second opinion.
