It depends. But if done correct and you maintain a great home care 10-20 years.
Depends from case to case. How broken down is the underlying tooth structure? How good is the hygiene? Is the bite problematic? Is there underlying gum disease? Its really hard to put a timeline on something with so many variables. Great question for the restoring dentist.

There are many different variables. But on average, a root canal tooth Without a crown tends to break and fail in about 5 years. You are wise to crown it.
A well completed rootcanaled tooth with a superior fitting crown can last for decades.
