I agree - only your Vet can say what should or should not be done in this case.
i never knew dd had high bats as her alt was normal but her bats are indicative of mvd and she was spay at 8 mos no problem under anesthesia and she has had a dental under anesthesia her numbers wer 73, 54 and now 26 post and both times dentist and vet said she did great under anesthesia and she is on temarilp (steroid) for allergies which affects the liver
