What is claimed is: 1. A holder for supporting various dentifrice items therein comprising in combination: a body defined by a top panel, a bottom panel in spaced apart relation along a longitudinal axis thereof, at least two pairs of two opposing sidewall panels, each of said sidewall panels attached to said bottom panel, thereby defining an internal cavity with an upper access opening; said body includes at least one toothbrush receiving opening adapted to support a correspondingly sized toothbrush therein and at least one toothpaste tube receiving opening adapted to support a correspondingly sized toothpaste tube; said top panel is slidingly attached to one pair of opposing sidewalls for movement between; i) a first position at which said top panel substantially covers said upper access opening; and ii) a second position at which said top panel provides at least partial access to said interior cavity of said holder so that additional items may be placed in said interior cavity; wherein said top panel is capable of supporting said at least one toothbrush in said corresponding port and said at least one toothpaste tube in said corresponding toothpaste tube port when said top panel is in both said first and said second position. 2. The holder as set forth in claim 1, wherein the upper periphery of at least one pair of opposing sidewalls includes a channel constructed and arranged to receive the width of said top panel, whereby said top panel is readily translated by the user between said first position and said second position along said at least one pair of opposing sidewall channels. 3. The holder as set forth in claim 1, wherein the outer periphery of said top panel includes a channel constructed and arranged to receive a projection integrally connected to at least one pair of opposing sidewalls, whereby said top panel is readily translated by the user between said first position and said second position along said at least one pair of opposing sidewall projections. 4. The holder as set forth in claim 1, wherein at least one said toothpaste tube receiving port is formed in said top panel, wherein said toothpaste tube receiving port is constructed and arranged to support said toothpaste tube when said top panel is in said first position or said second position. 5. The holder as set forth in claim 1, wherein said at least one toothbrush receiving port includes a chamfered edge adapted to retain said toothbrush in a position generally parallel to said longitudinal axis. 6. The holder as set forth in claim 1, wherein said holder further comprises at least one drain port in said bottom panel. 7. The holder as set forth in claim 6, further comprising at least one elevation projection extending from said body generally parallel to said longitudinal axis thereof, for elevating said body above a horizontal surface. 8. The holder as set forth in claim 7, wherein said elevation projection comprises a continuous peripheral elevation projection for retaining any fluid emptying from said at least one drain port underneath said bottom panel. 9. The holder as set forth in claim 1, wherein said internal cavity is filled with a solid material and said toothbrush receiving ports and said toothpaste tube receiving port open into individual upright passageways formed within said solid material and extend generally parallel to said longitudinal axis of said body. 10. The holder as set forth in claim 1, wherein said holder body is formed from at least one of the group consisting of plastic, metal, resin, fiberglass, porcelain, ceramic. 11. The holder as set forth in claim 1, wherein at least one said sidewall includes at least one means for removable attachment to a vertical surface. 12. A holder for supporting various dentifrice items therein comprising in combination: a body defined by a top panel, a bottom panel in spaced apart relation along a longitudinal axis thereof, at least three sidewall panels attached to said bottom panel, thereby defining an internal cavity with an access opening; said top panel includes at least one toothbrush receiving opening adapted to support a correspondingly sized toothbrush therein and at least one toothpaste tube receiving opening adapted to support a correspondingly sized toothpaste tube; wherein at least one of said sidewall panels is slidingly attached to said top panel and said bottom panel for movement between; i) a first position whereby at least one said sidewall panel substantially covers said access opening; and ii) a second position whereby said sidewall panel provides at least partial access to said interior cavity of said holder, so as to provide improved access to said interior cavity for easy cleaning. 13. The holder as set forth in claim 12, wherein the upper periphery of said top panel and said bottom panel each include a channel constructed and arranged to receive the width of said sidewall panel, wherein said sidewall panel is readily translated between said first position and said second position along said top panel channel and said bottom panel channel. 14. The holder as set forth in claim 12, wherein the outer periphery of at least one sidewall panel includes a channel constructed and arranged to receive a projection integrally connected to both said top panel and said bottom panel, wherein said sidewall panel is readily translated between said first position and said second position along said top panel projection and said bottom panel projection. 15. The holder as set forth in claim 12, wherein said at least one toothbrush receiving port includes a chamfered edge adapted to retain said toothbrush in a position generally parallel to said longitudinal axis. 16. The holder as set forth in claim 12, wherein bottom panel further comprises at least one drain port in said bottom wall. 17. The holder as set forth in claim 12, further comprising at least one elevation projection extending along said longitudinal axis from said body for elevating said body above a horizontal surface. 18. The holder as set forth in claim 17, wherein said elevation projection comprises a continuous peripheral elevation projection for retaining any fluid emptying from said at least one drain port underneath said holder body. 19. The holder as set forth in claim 12, wherein said holder body is formed from at least one of the group consisting of plastic, metal, fiberglass, ceramic, porcelain.
