There is no validity period for a root canal treatment that we can define. RCTs can definitely last for a lifetime if they do not get re-infected for any reason. The reason for reinfection could be improperly done root canal treatment in the first place or even poor oral hygiene maintenance by the patient after the procedure is over. Please relax and don't keep a countdown running in your mind for the symptoms to appear. Regards.
