An instrument for inserting a pair of sliding prostheses includes a supporting plate, two clamps adjustable through a spacing range, and two vertically adjustable sliding-surface bearing supports configured to support the sliding prostheses in the area of the sliding surfaces on the supports. Each of the clamps is configured to receive one of the pair of sliding prostheses and has clamping jaws configured to interact with the side edges of the corresponding sliding prostheses. The supporting plate has a slide guide formed thereon and an adjustment spindle for at least one of the two clamps. The sliding-surface bearing supports are configured in fixed positions on the supporting plate and having a width which corresponds to the adjustable spacing range of the clamps and is large enough to support the sliding prostheses in any chosen spacing.
