Why is an intervertebral disc not present between C1 and C2?
yes. the atlas and axis, or C1 and C2, do not have an intervertebral disc, nor an intervertebral foramen, between them. C1 looks like an oval. it has two lateral masses (no vertebral body) where it makes contact with the occiput and C2. the inferior articular facets of the C1 and the superior articular facets of C2 form 2 joints, one on each side. there is also a third joint formed by the dens, or odontoid process, of C2 and the interior of the anterior arch of C1. this is the joint you use to shake your head "no".
