Whilst the formation of planets continues to have many unknowns, the recent theory of pebble accretion has unveiled a pathway through which the formation of planets can be accelerated compared to the standard core accretion model. These pebbles are of particular interest given recent imaging with ALMA , highlighting rings and other disk substructures in the dust. Here I explore the motion of dust and gas in protoplanetary disks with massive embedded planets using 3D hydrodynamic simulations. In particular, I investigate the consequences of planetary masses above the so-called pebble isolation mass on the dust and gas behaviour. I will go on to broadly speak about the importance of these results on resulting disk and planet compositions.
