I've got periodontal disease, but will getting dentures help get rid of this?

Yes: Yes. Taking your teeth out will certainly get rid of your periodontal disease. Of course you have other options available to you to get rid of your periodontal disease. For instance you can seek help from a periodontist. Your doctor will diagnose and plan your treatment specifically for your needs and situation. Good luck and be well.

Yes, it will: Removing your teeth and replacing them with a denture in some cases may be the best way to eliminate periodontal disease.
