Explanation:
An even distribution of weight enabling someone or something to remain upright and steady.

They use the term "balance" in equine (horse) dentistry which refers to the alignment of the bones and the whole structure. It translates to "équilibré(e)" in this case, so it must be applicable to human dentistry too.

They also use the term "balance" to refer to "facial balance" or "facial appearance balance".

Whichever the meaning in your case, I think you can safely use the translation "balance" for the source term "équilibre".

Example sentence(s):
  • Contrary to what the natural balance movement states, whole mouth dentistry does not ignore the incisors and their importance to maintaining a balanced mouth
  • Both dental and gingival esthetics interlace for a nice smile and a balanced, harmonious face
