Dwarves (on average) lived longer than men. Dwarves did not become wraiths because of the rings' effects on them. Their wills weren't as bent to Sauron's will as much as the wills of men. They already had a great deal of greed in their nature and had already learned to focus it on mining. The rings just enhanced this greed.
