Under the Ottoman Empire, why did Turkey become largely Muslim, while Greece remained mostly Orthodox?

Was there a migration of Muslim peoples into Turkey? Did the central government exert pressure to become Muslim? I just read that the Ottomans were fairly tolerant of the Orthodox Church, and that only a minority of churches were converted into mosques, so I'm trying to figure out how the area that is now Turkey became Muslim.
