Paul, Luciano is right, look at the mortar that joins the firebrick dome if it's still firm. If the dome was made out of a proper materials it would last for many years of continuous cooking.
It shouldn't have signs of pealing on both the top of the dome or the heatrh floor. Standard fire bricks are meant to withstand/work in 1350 degrees celsius environment and of course such high temperature can not be reached in wood ovens.
