The 'be going to' future construction is used when there is a pre-existing plan or intention. In the sentence 'Jill __________ (to go) to the dentist next Monday. She has made this decision today,' the fact that she made the decision today indicates a plan. Therefore, 'is going to go' is the correct form.
Мы используем «be going to», когда у нас уже есть план или договоренность, или у нас есть намерения: Я лечу в Вену завтра.; Они едут в Черногорию в отпуск в августе.
