Skylab 2 Commander Charles Conrad is seen undergoing a dental examination by the Medical Officer, Joseph Kerwin in the Skylab Medical Facility. In the absence of an examination chair, Conrad simply rotated his body to an upside down position to facilitate the procedure. With 28 days spent in space, the astronauts of the mission Skylab 2 (May 25-June 22 1973) were the recordmen for the longest duration manned spaceflight.
