Is it Safe to Restore From a Backup if Checking for Software Issues?

I had to restore my iPhone to FS in order to check if there are software issues. Can I restore my phone with a back-up from 'music'/'iTunes' or will that only load the same software back onto the device?

No, it will restore your phone to the latest version of the OS and also download the apps fresh.
