Should braces be recommended for overlapping lateral incisors? (photos)

You have very narrow arches, upper anteriors that are lingually tipped, a v-shaped palate.  You mention having small teeth but actually the are recessed back into your mouth so you have poor tooth display.You also have functional issues as evidenced by severe anterior tooth wear.I would Rx considering a DNA Appliance and Epigenetic Orthopedics /orthodontics to give you a full smile with proper tooth exposure and soft tissue support.  This will also reduce risks of TMJ disorders, snoring, sleep apnea, headaches and migraines.  Increasing the airway can improve stamina and overall health.The DNA Appliance is only worn 12-14 hours /day and offers tremendous growth potential rather than limiting you to moving teeth in bone.Ira L Shapira DDS, D,ABDSM, D,AAPM, FICCMOChair, American Alliance of TMD OrganizationsThinkBetterLife.com

Braces, or Invisalign may very well be an option for you, but there is more to it than just the overlap.  How do they relate to the bottom teeth?  You should have a thorough evaluation by an orthodontist for direction.

Based on your photos, it looks like braces or potentially Invisalign could be a great option for treatment. Fees vary by office, so I recommend that you make an appointment for a comprehensive evaluation with an Orthodontist to get all of your options.
