The term “self-supporting” means that the composition is dimensionally stable and will maintain its shape (e.g., preformed shape of a crown) without significant deformation at room temperature (i.e., about 20� C. to about 25� C.) for at least about two weeks when free-standing (i.e., without the support of packaging or a container). Preferably, the compositions of the present invention are dimensionally stable at room temperature for at least about one month, and more preferably, for at least about six months. Preferably, the compositions of the present invention are dimensionally stable at temperatures above room temperature, more preferably up to about 40� C., even more preferably up to about 50� C., and even more preferably up to about 60� C. This definition applies in the absence of conditions that activate the initiator system and in the absence of an external force other than gravity.
