I've seen Salivary Mucocele's before. no biggie. some do go away without surgery, but, being that I worked in the surgery department, the ones i saw required surgery.
As far as the anesthesia goes, I wouldn't worry too much since he'll be at A&M. They will have far superior monitors, techs, and protocols then a regular vet. From what i've seen in general practice, during dentals there is usually no one monitoring the anesthesia except the person actually doing the dental (tech or vet). During a surgery, especially a major one, there will definitely be an anesthesia tech there to monitor George.
