Abstract

A hygienic tissue dispenser includes an enclosure, a lid, and a spool to allow a hygienic tissue paper to be stored and dispensed. The lid is hingedly connected to the enclosure at a pivot edge, opposite a primary side of the enclosure. At a free edge of the lid is a clamping projection, which includes a bottom edge with serrations. The primary side has a corresponding opening edge and depression therein, also with serrations. The hygienic tissue paper is secured about a spool, the latter of which is rotatably and detachably mounted to the interior of the enclosure via a first spool receptacle and a second spool receptacle. The clamping projection of the lid can be shut upon a loose portion of the hygienic tissue paper, securing it between the bottom edge and the opening edge. A use can then tear the hygienic tissue paper at the desired length.
