A method of securing a dental post in a prepared post hole of a tooth or a crown or bridge to a prepared tooth utilizing a no-mix, two component, self-curing cement wherein the first component is applied with a micro sized applicator to coat the interior surfaces of a post hole, crown or bridge, and wherein the second component is thereafter placed into the coated post hole or onto the surface of the tooth receiving the crown or bridge, and whereby the post, crown or bridge is then fitted onto the prepared tooth. Upon fitting of the post, crown or bridge, the components immediately set to firmly secure the post, crown or bridge onto the prepared tooth. The no-mix, two component, self-curing cement formulation for practicing the method requires that the respective components include a methacrylate resin. One of the components also includes an aromatic tertiary amine and the other component includes an organic peroxide. At least one or both of the components may also include hydroxyethyl methacrylate or hydroxypropyl methacrylate or other hydrophilic monomers. Other additives such as thickeners, fillers, fluoride salts, and polymerization inhibitors may also be included in one or the other component.
