Some bears must have had undergone operant conditioning that is why they open their mouths for teeth cleaning and present their paws for nail clipping.

Operant conditioning is a form of learning in which a reward or punishment is given for some voluntary behavior. 

Bears that have undergone operant conditioning are called food-conditioned bears. They are dangerous but learned to approach humans, or frequent human-occupied sites, in search of food (reward).

From the question given, the bears had most likely undergone operant conditioning.

Operant conditioning is a learning procedure in which the behavior is modified by reinforcement or punishment. In operant conditioning, voluntary behaviors are maintained over time by the consequences that accompany those behaviors. The tools used in operant conditioning are positive and negative reinforcement and positive and negative punishment.
