Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

There's no need to replace a chainring (other than to change size) until there's a need to do so. If the chain is running fine, there's no suck, or slippage under power or any other specific mechanical issue you can ride the ring until there is.

My old road bike has over 50k miles on the original rings, the other of which any Ninja would be proud to own, but they still run fine.
