What can I do for Invisalign sharp edges?

mon1509
I just started my treatment with Invisalign and the aligners are killing my tongue.I just can't stand it. My dentist filed the aligners down and it still hurts a lot.I use wax but I have to reapply every day and it takes a long time.So I have an idea how to fix the problem, but I'm not sure if it's safe or if it will work. When I get to the 3rd tray I'll try applying clear silicone on the first tray and see if it will stick on the edge and make a difference. Has anyone tried something like this?
