Default circular saw number of teeth

I have a Royobi EWS1150RS circular saw that came with a 170mm 12 tooth blade.

I need to cut down a chipboard kitchen carcass - soft material but needs a clean cut on one side (other side will be covered by end panels, etc).

My instinct is "12 teeth !", now go and look for another finer tooth blade (say 40 or more).

The included blade is this:

It says good for cutting laminate chipboard, etc.
So will this blade be OK ?
Are my insticts about number of teeth wrong due to the speed ?

Simon.
