An intervertebral implant for insertion between adjacent vertebral bodies is provided. The intervertebral implant can include a first component including a first articulating surface, which can be generally convex with a first radius of curvature. The first articulating surface can also define a stop element. The intervertebral implant can comprise a second component defining an aperture and including a second articulating surface. The second articulating surface can be generally concave and can have a second radius of curvature. The second articulating surface can be articulable with the first articulating surface for retaining motion between the first and second vertebra. A portion of the first articulating surface including the stop element can extend into the aperture and contacts a sidewall of the aperture to limit the range of articulation of the first component and the second component.
