Since proprioceptors of stomatognatic system react sensibly under pressure as such occlusal discrepancy after direct restorations, even if it is minor, leads to discomfort to the patients. Eventually patients compensate by adapting to new habitual occlusal position, which causes serious long term craniomandibular disturbances. The restoration of Class I cavities and erosively damaged teeth was the main consideration for Stamp technique but can be utilized for class II cavity restorations where marginal ridge is intact. This technique is possible in teeth where preoperative anatomy of the tooth is intact and not destructed by carious lesion. The stamp technique is perfomed in order to get a precise tooth‑like restoration with an accurate functional occlusion. This case report presents a case of stamp technique for simple class I composite restoration. The intent was to replicate occlusal anatomy by making a copy of the original unprepared tooth structure to get absolute anatomy in few minutes. 5 17 2020 1 3 10.31254/dentistry.2020.5101 http://www.dentistryscience.com/IJDR_202051_01.pdf
