• All patients will receive i.v. fluids before, during and after the dental cleaning.
• The patient is anesthetized and placed on a warming pad.
• Dental radiographs may be performed.
• Before cleaning begins the mouth is cleansed with a 0.2% Chlorahexadine solution to reduce the number of bacteria in the mouth.
