SEPARATION, SEVERANCE

                          AND GENERAL RELEASE AGREEMENT


     THIS AGREEMENT is entered into by and between FRED LEVINE,  the undersigned
employee   ("Employee")  and  SCHICK  TECHNOLOGIES,   INC.  ("Employer"  or  the
"Company"),  as of the 27th day of August,  1999. (The Employee and Employer are
sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "parties.")

     The  parties  hereby  knowingly  and  voluntarily  agree to enter into this
Separation,  Severance and General Release  Agreement (the "Agreement") in order
to  resolve  any and all  outstanding  issues  and to set forth all  obligations
between the  parties.  Employee  and  Employer  acknowledge  and agree that this
Agreement constitutes the sole obligations of each to the other,  supersedes all
previous  agreements and/or promises and that no other promises,  commitments or
representations have been made with or by either of the parties to the other.

     Employee's   employment  with  Employer,   and  Employee's   membership  on
Employer's Board of Directors will cease as of 5:00 p.m. on August 27, 1999 (the
"Termination  Date").  In consideration  for executing this Agreement,  Employee
will receive the following :

(a)  continued  payment of his current  salary,  in the gross  annual  amount of
     $170,000,  minus applicable  payroll  deductions,  for a period of one year
     following the Termination  Date. Said payments shall be made by Employer to
     Employee  in  equal  bi-weekly  increments,  on  the  dates  on  which  the
     Employer's company payroll is regularly paid.

(b)  Continued  receipt  of the  following  benefits  on the same terms by which
     Employee   currently  receives  those  benefits  from  Employer  :  medical
     insurance  and  dental  insurance  for a period of one year  following  the
     Termination Date. In the event that the terms or availability of any of the
     foregoing  benefits are changed,  modified or terminated  generally for all
     company  employees or for a majority of said  employees,  then the terms of
     those  benefits  may be changed,  modified  or  terminated  accordingly  by
     Employer,  at its sole option,  with respect to the benefits conferred upon
     Employee hereunder.  Furthermore, in the event that Employee obtains any of
     the foregoing  benefits from a third party (such as a new  employer),  then
     Employer,  at its sole  option,  may  immediately  cease to  provide  those
     benefits to Employee;

     Furthermore,  Employee shall be entitled to  indemnification by Employer in
connection  with  any  action,  suit or  proceeding,  whether  civil,  criminal,
administrative  or  investigative,  by reason of the fact that he was an officer
and/or  employee  of  Employer,


                                                                       p. 1 of 4

pursuant to the  provisions of Article V of Employer's  By-laws,  as amended,  a
copy of which Article is annexed hereto and made a part hereof.

     Employee  acknowledges  that he has been advised that his medical insurance
coverage  will end no  later  than  August  27,  2000  and that he can  elect to
continue coverage under Employer's  Medical Insurance Plan thereafter at his own
cost in accordance with applicable law.

     Employer  acknowledges  that Employee was granted options in fiscal 1996 to
purchase 56,000 shares of Employer's  common stock at an exercise price of $1.79
per share,  all of which such options are  currently  vested.  Said options will
survive the  termination  of  Employee's  employment  with  Employer  and may be
exercised until they expire on December 31, 2000.

     Employee  acknowledges  that  he is  receiving  a  substantially  increased
benefit as  consideration  for executing this Agreement.  Employee  acknowledges
that he is not entitled to any other benefits or monies.

     Employee and Employer  agree not to disparage or impugn each other or their
respective  partners,  officers,  directors or employees,  in any way.  Employer
shall publicly disclose the termination of Employee's employment by the issuance
of a press release in the form annexed  hereto.  Unless required by law, rule or
regulation,  Employer shall not make any further public  disclosure or issue any
additional  press  releases  which   specifically   mention  Employee  by  name.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,  however,  Employer may, at its
sole discretion,  make any public disclosures it deems appropriate provided that
Employee is not specifically mentioned therein by name.

     Employee agrees that for a period of twenty-four  (24) months following the
termination  of  his  employment  with  Employer,   he  will  not,  directly  or
indirectly,  engage or become interested as an owner, partner, lender, director,
officer, employee, consultant or in a similar capacity in any way (whether as an
owner, partner, lender, investor,  director,  officer,  employee,  consultant or
otherwise,)  in  any  activity,  business  or  enterprise,  located  within  the
geographical  area of the United  States,  that sells any product which competes
with any  Company  products  is  competitive  with any  significant  part of the
Company's  business,  without the prior written  consent of the President of the
Company.
