Yup, it generally involves putting the dog under. You might want to
find out what they're going to use for this (See Cin's post from 2/9 at
2:29 AM for reasons why). How the dog reacts can vary widely depending
on what they use.

Now, I'm not sure why Moogli needs to have his teeth cleaned. I
understand that small breed dogs tend to have teeth problems, but he is
not even 2, right? My two have never had their teeth cleaned, and every
vet visit, they keep checking (and hoping, I guess). Even the "old man"
has good teeth, which is quite nice to see, considering that his teeth
were somewhere between brown and green when we first got him.
