  • Balene® (South Africa)
  • Category Advice Column, Health

Balene®, the revolutionary double-sided toothbrush from Spain, clinically proven to clean the inside and outside of the teeth at the same time, is now available in South Africa at Dis-Chem, selected pharmacies and dental practices. 

Balene is designed to efficiently clean the inside and the outside of the teeth simultaneously. It is backed by clinical research, including the most recent study published in the International Journal of Dental Hygiene, which demonstrates Balene’s remarkable efficacy in removing plaque and promoting good oral hygiene.

Features

  • Innovative dual-sided design – cleans inside, outside, and chewing surfaces simultaneously.
  • The head rotates 180° independently, making it easy to reach every area. 
  • Built-in tongue cleaner.
  • Comfortable to hold, ergonomic design.
  • New-generation Tyflex® bristles – soft, durable, effective and antibacterial.

Who is Balene for?

Balene® is suitable for all adults and children, aged six years and above. It is particularly beneficial when:

  • You have limited time to brush correctly. Dental professionals recommend you brush for a full two minutes a day, twice a day.
  • You struggle with fine motor skills, have limited dexterity or challenges that make it difficult for you to reach all the areas of your mouth.
  • You are assisting someone to take care of their teeth. It’s ideal for parents, nurses and caregivers because it makes it quicker and easier to brush. 
  • Children are still learning to brush their teeth correctly. 

Balene® can also be used with implants and orthodontic braces. 

How Balene works

  • Balene® has an innovative dual-sided head that embraces the teeth, brushing the inside and outside of teeth simultaneously, meaning a better clean in less time.
  • The head rotates 180° independently of the handle, so it’s easy to move the brush to all corners of the mouth. 
  • The soft, round tipped bristles are angled at 45° to gently clean under the gumline, in line with the bass brushing technique recommended by dental professionals.
  • The antibacterial Tyflex® bristles help ensure a hygienic brushing experience. They also last twice as long as conventional nylon bristles.
