If your vet is experienced in doing small animal, your baby should be in very good hands. Vets do pediatric spays all the time, on tiny little kittens that are much smaller. I'd have them be extra thorough with the pre-op testing and also find out what kind of anesthesia they'll use. Sevoflourane is what you really want, it clears their body very quickly. If they say they're using IV anesthesia, RUN!!! That is much harder to get the dosage right and it takes a long time to work it's way our of their little bodies. The gas is much better, they can control it more tightly, and they come out of it very quickly when it's shut off. With a little one like your baby, also make sure that they are using heat support to keep her body temp up during surgery.
I think it's very smart of you to go ahead and do the spay while she's under for her teeth.
