A toothpaste dispensing apparatus includes a base. A housing is attached
to and extends upwardly from the base. The housing includes a peripheral
wall that has an upper edge defining an opening. A toothpaste tube
squeezing assembly is mounted within the housing and is adapted for
selectively ejecting toothpaste out of a tube of toothpaste. A cover is
hingedly attached to the upper edge of the housing. A flange is attached
to and extends outwardly away from the cover. The cover has a dispensing
conduit therein. The dispending conduit includes a receiving opening
extending upwardly into the cover and an ejecting opening extending
downwardly from the flange. The tube may be fluidly coupled to the
receiving opening when the cover is placed in a closed position such that
toothpaste flows into the receiving opening and outwardly through the
ejecting opening when the toothpaste is ejected out of the tube.
