Hello, With good care, it should last many, many years.
as long the implant is healthy the crown will be intact
It varies. Often the crown is fine but the screw that holds i in is the weak link. Porcelain can break at anytime due to biting forces, patients habits and other factors. Quality of the lab, position and health of the implant , and the type of implant, official or generic all play rolls in the longevity of the crown. Patients periodontal health also are factors
