Abstract
An anchor for securing a tooth replacement includes an anchoring part secured to an implant or jaw, having a recess, and a pivoting part to which the tooth replacement can be secured and which contains a pin. The pivoting part is pivotable with respect to the anchoring part when the pin is received in the recess. The anchor is configured to permit application of a hardenable substance in the recess of the anchoring part so as to fix the pivoting part in a defined position of pivoting.
