Uhmm .. I doubt.

Balanced binary trees are binary search tree that keep almost balanced a
tree (like AVL or RB-tree), Btree and B+tree are data structures usually
used in DBMS, kept on disk and aimed to minimize the number of disk seek
(usually btree's leafs are sized based on disk block size).

Cheers.
