"Stamp technique" is a new technique for restoring class I and class II restorations with accurate occlusal topography. It was introduced mainly to restore Class I cavities and erosively damaged teeth. This technique is possible in teeth where preoperative anatomy of the tooth is intact and not destructed by carious lesion. A precise tooth-like restoration with an accurate functional occlusion is obtained when the stamp technique is perfomed. This technique is also utilized for class II cavity restorations where marginal ridge is intact .This case report describes simple class I composite restoration using stamp technique. The purpose is to replicate occlusal anatomy by making a copy of the original unprepared tooth structure to get perfect anatomy in few minutes.
