The author’s model of future dentists’ foreign language competence formation is developed and substantiated in the article. The analyses of scientific sources and own pedagogical experience allows to distinguish the main components of the model. In particular, they are defined as target, organizational and content, activity, evaluative-reflexive, resulting ones. The target component states the purpose and essential tasks of future dentists’ foreign language competence formation that are necessary to perform in order to achieve the result. The next component is considered as the organizational and content one which covers the principles, specifics, pedagogical conditions, factors and fields of foreign language competence formation. The activity constituent is represented with the different technologies (intensive training, game and computer technologies, modular learning,) forms (individual work, pair work, group work, plenary work) and methods (lexical exercises, tasks for listening or reading comprehension and various communicative activities) of foreign language competence formation  that allow activating students’ vocabulary knowledge and motivating them to study. The evaluative and reflexive element monitors the learning process, when the level of future dentists’ foreign language competence is determined in accordance with the established criteria. They include different levels: A2+ (pre-intermediate), B1 (intermediate), B2 (upper-intermediate). The final component is the resulting one that implies the present result: developed future dentists’ foreign language competence which provides the possibility them to perform their professional duties in English-speaking environment.
