These are tooth sets and isolated teeth from a Wrasse, most likely Labrodon pavimentatum?.  Although somewhat similar to the commonly found  Drum Fish (Pogonias sp.), these teeth are stacked on top of each other (called phyllodont teeth) and lack roots unlike the Pogonias which have roots and are set in a single layer in a bony mouth plate.  Many of the teeth have a figure 8 type configuration to the base and in this gravel, they tend to be a bluish color.
