You have to do what you feel is best, however, I believe in removing baby teeth at the time of spay/neuter - unless there is a medical issue that would advise more caution.
Marcel had a standard neuter and 7 baby teeth removed - the entire procedure took about 35-40 minutes. If you have a healthy pet, a skilled Vet, and have asked all the right questions - I see no reason to not have baby teeth removed concurrently.
If a dog has liver issues or other underlying health issues (which should have been uncovered by pre-op full blood panel) - then you may want to more closely consider time under gas. Otherwise though, it seems much more risky to me to plan for another surgery just for teeth removal.
[btw, funny this all comes up bc I'm currently in the process of writing an Anesthesia sticky - should be done today]
