Abstract
An exact Lagrangian submanifold in the symplectization of standard contact -space with Legendrian boundary can be glued to itself along . This gives a Legendrian embedding of the double of into contact -space. We show that the Legendrian isotopy class of is determined by formal data: the manifold together with a trivialization of its complexified tangent bundle. In particular, if is a disk then is the Legendrian unknot.

Comments
8 pages. An assumption on regularity of Lagrangian fillings was removed following a suggestion by Yang Huang. Version contains Emmy Murphy's proof of looseness of Legendrian spheres obtained by gluing two distinct disk fillings. (These spheres were originally claimed elsewhere by the second author to be non-loose.)
