This is completely normal and quite a common occurance in yorkies. How old is Ginger? Has she been spayed? I would suggest getting them pulled when she is spayed. If she has already been spayed, then you really should get them pulled by the vet, but it is to your discretion as to when you want to do this. Many people wait until their yorkies are around a year old or so to see if they fall out of their own. Others, such as myself, prefer getting them pulled as soon as they are done teething. Retained baby teeth can mess up their bite and food can get stuck between the retained baby tooth and the adult tooth and rot causing all sorts of problems.

But, retained baby teeth are nothing to be worried about.
