The soles of my shoes do not show any visible signs of wear. However, the insole of my right shoe has a big deep dent right under the ball of my foot.
Is this an indication that my right foot over pronate? I also have a recurring peroneal tendonitis.
What types of shoes would you recommend?
Try Superfeet Green insoles.
You actually probably underpronate if you have peroneal tendonitis. Sounds like you have a high arch foot type if you have the "dent" at the ball of the foot in your insole. The "pop" running literature will recommend a neutral cushioned shoe in the this instance.
Peroneal tendonitis suggests lateral instability so a trail shoe may give you more "side to side" stability.
The dent (big and deep) on the insole of my right shoe is at the inside of the foot. Behind the big toe. Isn't this an indication of over pronation?
However you are correct, I do have high arch foot type. Also, Peroneal tendonitis has ben a recurring injury.
Thank you for you help
yup you appear overpronate. get a stability shoe
Sorry to hear about your shoe problems. I find the whole overpronation thing is explained clearly here:

One of the best moderate pronating shoes on the market is the Asics Kayano 17. I've owned a pair myself and love the comfort provided.
See if they're right for you:
