Make sure your vet does a full blood panel (senior dogs needs this done twice a year anyway, once @ bare minimum). Blood work b4 going under is very important, it will show the vet how the dog's organs are doing & if s/he can handle anesthesia.
Clean teeth is a very important part of their health (our's too!). If they get periodontal disease, the bad blood can harm the major organs & bring disease.
