Schick Technologies Comments on SEC Settlement Conference

LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y., October 26, 2004 -- Schick Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB:
SCHK) today announced that it has not yet reached a settlement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and that it intends to continue settlement
discussions with the SEC. At the recent closed-door settlement conference, held
before the Court on October 21, 2004, the Court scheduled January 21, 2005 as
the date on which the settlement conference will continue. The parties are free
to continue their settlement discussions prior to the next scheduled conference
date.

As previously disclosed by the Company, on November 14, 2003, the SEC filed a
civil action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New
York against the Company, its former chief executive officer, and its former
vice president of sales and marketing. The SEC complaint alleges fraud, books
and records violations, and reporting violations under Sections 10(b), 13(a) and
13(b)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), and various rules promulgated thereunder in connection with the financial
statements included in the Company's reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended
June 30, September 30 and December 31, 1998. The SEC complaint seeks to enjoin
the Company from future violations of those provisions of the Exchange Act and
the rules thereunder, as well as disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, if any, which
the Company does not believe to be material in amount. With respect to the other
defendants, the complaint seeks injunctive relief, civil penalties, disgorgement
and an officer/director bar.

continuation of settlement discussions relating to the SEC action against the
Company, and any other statements which are not historical. Actual future
events, results and trends could differ materially from those set forth in such
statements due to various factors, including the possibility that the SEC will
choose not to participate in settlement discussions and other risks and
uncertainties, including those detailed in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
