The invention relates to an intervertebral disc prosthesis consisting of: an upper plate, a lower plate having an essentially-flat support surface, and an intermediate element comprising a base which is equipped with a rim and which is topped with a spherical cap. The upper plate and the cap define a ball and socket joint therebetween. The base of the intermediate element comes into contact with the support surfaces, while the lower plate is equipped with a guide comprising two edges which maintain the intermediate element therebetween. The rim of the base comes into contact with the edges and said rim is circular in shape and adapted to enable the intermediate element to roll along the length of the edges
