Yes definitely you should wait for the lockdown to be over. Then u get the RCT finished. If u are not experiencing any pain , then there should not be any issues. The cavity must be sealed temporarily as of now. Avoid chewing or applying pressure on that side. If u have any symptoms, u can take any painkiller SOS. DO warm saline water mouthwash twice daily.
