The invention relates to an implant (10) for anchoring in the human or animal maxilla or mandible, a device (100) (an instrument) for bending an implant, a system, which includes an implant (10) and a device (100) for bending an implant, and a method for bending an implant. As a result of the bending geometry, an implant (10) is provided which is bendable in a simple and materially-careful manner, in particular after implantation, i.e., already anchored in the jaw bone. The device (100) for bending the implant (10) enables, due to the pliers-shaped design having corresponding holding (113) and support (123) units, the bending of the implant in a simple manner, in particular the bending after implantation thereof, so that a treatment which protects the implantation region is ensured, in particular, no damage of the bone bed is induced. In addition, a method for bending the implant (10) is provided.
