Does teehing affect the neut % and lym% in blood test for babies 9 months old ?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Maybe,maybe not: Any stress might produce a mild stress pattern on a blood count giving a slight rise in total wbc's but these would be mature forms & in normal percentage. Teething is often a label used when no specific reason for when fussiness or fever is found on exam & I have doubts that it is a real process. (just one that the lay public will easily accept).

No: Teething should not effect white blood cell counts.
